Build a Frame That Holds Everything

Professional wood and metal framing services in Greenwich, Connecticut for remodels, repairs, and new construction.

When you plan a remodel or repair in Greenwich, the framing stage determines whether your walls stay straight, your doors close properly, and your finishes last. Greenwich home improvement Company handles wood and metal framing for residential projects where structural accuracy and code compliance matter from the start.

Whether you need load-bearing walls rebuilt after water damage, metal studs installed in a basement renovation, or wood framing for a kitchen expansion, the crew works with both materials depending on what your project requires. The framing phase also sets the stage for plumbing, electrical, and drywall, so timing and coordination with other trades keeps the schedule on track without delays or rework.

If you are planning a renovation or addition in Greenwich and want to start with solid framing, reach out to discuss your project and schedule an on-site assessment.

What Happens During the Framing Phase

The framing crew arrives in Greenwich after the demolition or site prep is complete, and they begin by measuring and marking stud placement to match your floor plan. Wood framing is used for most above-grade walls and load-bearing structures, while metal studs are installed in areas where moisture resistance or non-combustible material is required by code.

Once the framing is complete, you will see straight walls, square corners, and openings that align with door and window rough-ins. The structure will be level and plumb, which means drywall installs flat, trim fits cleanly, and your finishes look professional when the project is done.

Greenwich home improvement Company coordinates the framing phase with inspections and follow-on trades so your project moves forward without gaps in the schedule. The team also handles structural repairs tied to remodels, damage, or layout changes that require removing and rebuilding interior or exterior walls.

You probably have a few questions before moving forward

Homeowners in Greenwich often ask about material choice, timelines, and what happens between framing and drywall, so here are answers to the most common questions about wood and metal framing services.

What is the difference between wood and metal framing?
Wood framing is used for load-bearing walls and most residential structures, while metal studs are chosen for basements, fire-rated walls, or areas where moisture and dimensional stability are concerns. The crew selects the right material based on your project and code requirements.
How long does framing take for a typical remodel?
A single room or bathroom remodel usually takes one to three days to frame, while larger projects like kitchen expansions or full home additions take longer depending on size and complexity. The timeline also depends on inspection scheduling and coordination with other trades.
What happens if the existing structure is not level?
The framing crew will assess the condition of your existing structure and make adjustments using shims, blocking, or structural repairs to bring new walls into alignment. This step prevents issues with drywall, flooring, and trim installation later in the project.
Why does framing need to be inspected?
Greenwich building codes require framing inspections to verify that load-bearing walls, headers, and fasteners meet structural standards before drywall or insulation covers the work. The inspection also confirms that electrical and plumbing rough-ins are installed correctly within the framed walls.
When should I schedule framing for my remodel?
You should schedule framing after demolition and any needed structural repairs are complete, and before plumbing, electrical, or HVAC rough-ins begin. Framing sets the layout and dimensions for everything that follows, so it is one of the first trades on site during the construction phase.

If you are starting a remodel, addition, or structural repair in Greenwich and need framing that supports the rest of your project, contact Greenwich home improvement Company to schedule an on-site framing assessment and discuss your timeline.
