Do you frame basement developments in Nolan Hill?

Yes -- most of our Nolan Hill framing work is wood-frame basement layouts finished ready for board. We also cover Glacier Ridge, Medicine Hill, Haskayne and every Calgary quadrant.

Do you frame load-bearing walls?

No -- interior, non-load-bearing walls and bulkheads are the limit of what we frame in Nolan Hill. Where the work is structural a licensed structural engineer is required, and you will hear that from us on the Nolan Hill visit.

Yes -- because one Nolan Hill crew does all four stages, there is no handoff for anything to get lost in.

Do you build bulkheads around ducting in Nolan Hill?

Yes -- in Nolan Hill basements, bulkheads and soffits around ductwork, plumbing and lighting are close to standard.

Do you sequence with the other trades on a Nolan Hill project?

Yes -- we order the Nolan Hill framing around your other trades so their rough-in is clean before insulation and board.

Framing in Nolan Hill, square and ready for drywall

The frame is where an unfinished Nolan Hill basement or open plan becomes actual rooms. In Nolan Hill we build wood-frame basement development layouts and interior partition walls — squared, plumbed and spaced for the drywall going over them. We frame interior, non-load-bearing walls in Nolan Hill; load-bearing work belongs to a licensed structural engineer. Nolan Hill is a NW 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. In a Nolan Hill home the framing crew carries on into boarding, taping and finishing, so no handoff occurs. We cover Nolan Hill, Glacier Ridge, Medicine Hill, Haskayne and every Calgary quadrant, 7 days a week.

What affects the cost of framing in Nolan Hill?

Wall length, layout and openings

Framing cost in Nolan Hill 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 Nolan Hill homes

Because Nolan Hill is a NW 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. Knockdown is the standard ceiling texture through Nolan Hill, so a patch gets tested for match before the whole ceiling is sprayed.

Our Nolan Hill 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 Nolan Hill 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 Nolan Hill for the stage that follows.

Basement development framing in Nolan Hill

From open concrete to real rooms

A basement development layout is the most common framing job we do in Nolan Hill — 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. If it is structural it belongs with a licensed structural engineer; you will get a straight answer on that before we start in Nolan Hill. A lot of our Nolan Hill work starts in the basement, where the ceiling has to stay openable for the plumbing above it.

Common framing situations in Nolan Hill

In Nolan Hill, nolan Hill is a community still being built out in the 2020s. Homes there are current-build, so ceilings are typically knockdown and the work is new-build boarding and taping, basement development, and the first-season movement that shows up as a house dries out. Free on-site quote, one fixed price, and work that holds up after.

Why Nolan Hill homeowners trust Emplastrum for framing

Fixed price, same-day reply

We cover Nolan Hill, Glacier Ridge, Medicine Hill, Haskayne and every Calgary quadrant, 7 days a week. On-site quoting in Nolan Hill costs nothing, the price is fixed, and the work is backed.
