Framing in The Summit of RiverSong, square and ready for drywall

In a The Summit of RiverSong home, real rooms out of an unfinished basement or open floor plan begin at the framing. In The Summit of RiverSong we build wood-frame basement development layouts and interior partition walls — squared, plumbed and spaced for the drywall going over them. Our The Summit of RiverSong framing is interior and non-load-bearing only -- anything load-bearing goes to a licensed structural engineer. The Summit of RiverSong is a Cochrane community where reno, repair and finishing drywall are common, so framing calls here range from clean basement layouts in the newer homes to alteration work in the older ones. Whoever frames it in The Summit of RiverSong also boards, tapes and finishes it -- nothing changes hands between trades. We cover The Summit of RiverSong and all of Cochrane, 7 days a week.

Our The Summit of RiverSong 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 The Summit of RiverSong 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 The Summit of RiverSong for the stage that follows. Basement development is common in The Summit of RiverSong, and a basement behaves differently from the rest of the house — cooler, damper, and less forgiving of a rushed finish.

We keep our framing to interior, non-load-bearing walls and bulkheads. Structural work goes to a licensed structural engineer, and we say so plainly when a The Summit of RiverSong project turns out to need one.
