Framing in Scarboro/Sunalta West, square and ready for drywall

Turning an unfinished basement or an open floor plan into real rooms starts with the frame. In Scarboro/Sunalta West 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. Scarboro/Sunalta West is an older SW Calgary community where settling cracks, aging texture and the occasional plaster repair come up, 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 Scarboro/Sunalta West, Pine Creek, Alpine Park, Osprey Hill and every Calgary quadrant, 7 days a week.

Our Scarboro/Sunalta West framing process in Calgary, 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 Scarboro/Sunalta West 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 Scarboro/Sunalta West for the stage that follows.

Basement development framing in Scarboro/Sunalta West in Calgary

From open concrete to real rooms

A basement development layout is the most common framing job we do in Scarboro/Sunalta West — 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 Scarboro/Sunalta West in Calgary
