Framing in Blackburne, square and ready for drywall

Turning an unfinished basement or an open floor plan into real rooms starts with the frame. In Blackburne 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. Blackburne is a hamlet-and-acreage area just north of Edmonton where custom homes and outbuildings drive a mix of drywall installation and finishing calls, so framing calls here range from clean basement layouts in the newer homes to alteration work in the older ones. The same crew that frames can board, tape and finish too, so there is no handoff between trades. We cover Blackburne, Allard, Ambleside, Blackmud Creek and Southwest, 7 days a week.
