Do you frame basement developments in The Summit of Riversong?

Yes — wood-frame basement layouts ready for drywall are our most common framing job. We also cover Cochrane, Sunset Ridge, Heritage Hills and every Calgary quadrant.

Do you frame load-bearing walls?

No — we frame interior, non-load-bearing walls and bulkheads only. Anything structural needs a licensed structural engineer, and we will tell you when that is the case.

Can the same crew do the drywall after framing in The Summit of Riversong?

Yes — one crew frames, boards, tapes and finishes, so nothing gets lost in a handoff between trades.

Do you build bulkheads around ducting in The Summit of Riversong?

Yes — bulkheads and soffits to box in ductwork, plumbing and lighting are part of nearly every basement frame.

Do you coordinate with my electrician and plumber?

Yes — we sequence the framing so your other trades can rough in cleanly before insulation and drywall.

We want a flawless finish on our vaulted ceiling in The Summit of RiverSong -- what do you recommend?

For vaulted ceilings and feature walls under strong light we recommend a full Level 5 skim coat -- it's the smoothest finish available and a common choice in The Summit of RiverSong's higher-end homes.

Framing The Summit Of Riversong Cochrane | Wall Framing

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

Turning an unfinished basement or an open floor plan into real rooms starts with the frame. 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. We frame interior, non-load-bearing walls only; a licensed structural engineer handles anything load-bearing. The Summit of Riversong is a new hillside phase of Riversong where new-construction finishing leads the calls, so framing calls here are almost all basement development layouts, since the main floors are freshly built to plan. The same crew that frames can board, tape and finish too, so there is no handoff between trades. We cover The Summit of Riversong and all of Cochrane, 7 days a week.
