Framing is the skeleton everything else hangs on — square walls make easy drywall, straight ceilings, and doors that close for the next thirty years. Our crews frame additions, second stories, ADU and garage shells, and full new construction to the engineer's drawings, hardware and all.
We also do the structural work older LA housing quietly needs: sistering sawn-off joists, replacing dry-rot and termite damage, shear walls, and the balcony repairs that SB 721 and SB 326 inspections keep turning up.
Floor, wall, and roof framing tied correctly into the existing structure — the difference between an addition and a lean-to.
Slab-to-roof shells for ADUs, garages, and workshops — ready for trades, delivered on a date you can plan around.
Production-fast, inspection-clean framing for houses, duplexes, and light commercial.
Dry rot, termite damage, sagging floors, and cut joists — opened up, engineered, and rebuilt properly.
Simpson hardware, hold-downs, and shear panels installed the way the calcs say — this is earthquake country.
Framing and waterproofing repairs for the elevated elements SB 721 / SB 326 inspections flag on apartments and condos.
We meet at your property, listen, measure, and give you straight answers — including the ones you didn't ask for. Estimates are free.
A written, line-item scope with a milestone payment schedule that follows California law. Plans, engineering, and permits handled.
Our own crews, a clean site, and a schedule we actually keep. You get one point of contact and updates you don't have to chase.
We punch the list to zero, pass final inspection, and stand behind the work after the trucks leave.
For additions, second stories, and shear work — yes, and the city will require them. If you don't have plans yet, we'll bring in the engineer; if you do, we build exactly to them.
Yes — that's weekly work for us. We open up, replace or sister the damaged members, add required hardware, and close with inspections documented so the report clears.
A typical room addition frames in 1–2 weeks; a detached ADU shell in 2–4. Because framing is in-house, that date doesn't slip while a sub finishes someone else's job.
Yes. If you're running your own project and need a clean framing package — labor, hardware, inspections — we do that, at a fixed price.
Free on-site estimates. Straight answers on price, permits, and timeline — no runaround.
We reply within one business day — usually faster.
