Framing in Lakeview Landing, square and ready for drywall

Turning an unfinished basement or an open floor plan in Lakeview Landing into real rooms starts with the frame. In Lakeview Landing we build wood-frame basement development layouts and interior partition walls — squared, plumbed and spaced for the drywall going over them. In Lakeview Landing we frame interior, non-load-bearing walls only; a licensed structural engineer handles anything load-bearing. Lakeview Landing is a Calgary community with a mix of older homes and newer builds, so framing calls here range from clean basement layouts in the newer homes to alteration work in the older ones. The same crew that frames your Lakeview Landing walls can board, tape and finish them too, so there is no handoff between trades. We cover Lakeview Landing and all of Chestermere, 7 days a week.

What affects the cost of framing in Lakeview Landing?

Wall length, layout and openings

Framing cost in Lakeview Landing tracks the total wall length, the complexity of the layout, and the number of openings and bulkheads. We price off a site walk-through and give a fixed number before we start.

Typical framing work in Lakeview Landing homes

Because Lakeview Landing is a Calgary community with a mix of older homes and newer builds, framing calls here range from clean basement layouts in the newer homes to alteration work in the older ones.

Our Lakeview Landing framing process, step by step

Layout before lumber

We chalk the plate lines from the plan or your walk-through direction and confirm every wall location in your Lakeview Landing space before anything is cut.

Square, plumb, spaced right

We frame the walls square and plumb with stud spacing matched to the board going over them — the frame stage is where a wavy wall gets built or avoided. See our basement drywall work in Lakeview Landing for the stage that follows. Because Lakeview Landing is largely new construction, the board is still settling and hairline cracking at corners is the normal first-year complaint.

Basement development framing in Lakeview Landing

From open concrete to real rooms

A basement development layout is the most common framing job we do in Lakeview Landing — bedrooms, a bathroom, a media room or a suite, framed to plan and ready for the trades that follow.

Interior and non-load-bearing only

We keep our framing to interior, non-load-bearing walls and bulkheads. Anything structural belongs with a licensed structural engineer -- and on a Lakeview Landing job we will tell you honestly when that is what your project needs. In Lakeview Landing basements the deciding detail is usually access: what has to stay reachable once the ceiling is closed up.

What to expect from framing in Lakeview Landing

Because the homes in Lakeview Landing are still new, most of what we find is first-season movement rather than damage — hairline cracks at corners and the odd nail pop as the framing dries out.

Builder deficiency work is common in Lakeview Landing — nail pops, corner cracks and seams that only appeared after possession.

A lot of the work in Lakeview Landing starts in the basement, where the ceiling has to stay openable for the plumbing and ducting above it.
