Framing in Olde Towne, square and ready for drywall

Turning an unfinished basement or an open floor plan into real rooms starts with the frame. In Olde Towne 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 only; a licensed structural engineer handles anything load-bearing. Olde Towne is Okotoks's historic core, where the housing stock is older, so framing here often means reworking walls that have shifted or been altered over the decades, alongside basement development. The same crew that frames can board, tape and finish too, so there is no handoff between trades. We cover Olde Towne, D’Arcy, Crystal Shores, Drake Landing and the Okotoks area, 7 days a week.

What affects the cost of framing in Olde Towne?

Wall length, layout and openings

Framing cost in Olde Towne 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 Olde Towne homes

Because Olde Towne is Okotoks's historic core, where the housing stock is older, framing here often means reworking walls that have shifted or been altered over the decades, alongside basement development.

Our Olde Towne 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 Olde Towne 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 Olde Towne for the stage that follows.

Basement development framing in Olde Towne

From open concrete to real rooms

A basement development layout is the most common framing job we do in Olde Towne — 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 we will tell you honestly when that is what your project needs.

Common framing situations in Olde Towne

Basement layouts

Okotoks's historic core, where the housing stock is older, so framing an unfinished basement into a usable layout is the call we hear most.

Partition changes

We also reframe and add partition walls in Olde Towne homes when a layout changes — closing an opening, splitting a room, or adding a closet or storage wall.
