Framing Changes
Framing Changes in Austin, TX focus on altering the structural skeleton so spaces can be opened, openings added, or repairs made. This service covers header installs, beam placement, bearing wall adjustments, and selective rebuilds to support a new layout or repair damage.

What to Expect
First we inspect existing framing and confirm loads. When necessary we obtain structural drawings from an engineer. The crew sets temporary supports, removes old framing, and installs new members with correct fasteners and connections. We coordinate rough inspections and then proceed to wrap, shear, or add fire blocking as code requires. After framing is complete we move to insulation and finish trades so the new opening blends with the rest of the building.
