Load-bearing walls and where we stop

Not our decision to make

Removing or altering a wall that carries load is a structural question, and we do not take a homeowner's assurance that a wall is non-bearing.

What we need

Drawings or an engineer's assessment. If a wall in an Stewart Greens renovation turns out to be bearing, the job becomes beams and posts — a different scope, and one far better priced before demolition than discovered during it.

Basement framing against foundation walls in Edmonton

Hold it off the concrete

Framing tight against an Stewart Greens foundation wall puts wood and insulation against a cold, sometimes damp surface with no way to dry.

How it is done

The wall is held off, or a rigid layer goes on the concrete first. It costs an inch or two of floor space and it is the difference between a basement that stays dry and one that smells musty in year two.

Backing for everything that gets fixed later

Decide before it closes

Grab bars, TV mounts, floating shelves, cabinets, handrails and towel rails all need something solid behind the board.

The cheap moment

Adding backing while the Stewart Greens wall is open takes minutes. Finding it missing after the wall is finished means opening it or relying on hollow-wall anchors that eventually pull out. We ask what is going on the walls before we close them.

Our Stewart Greens framing process in Edmonton, step by step

Layout before lumber

We chalk the plate lines from the plan or your walk-through direction and confirm every wall location in your Stewart Greens space before anything is cut.

Square, plumb, spaced right

We frame the walls square and plumb with stud spacing matched to the board going over them — the frame stage is where a wavy wall gets built or avoided. See our basement drywall work in Stewart Greens for the stage that follows.

Steel studs against wood in a Stewart Greens basement

Different tools for different jobs

Steel is straight, will not warp, does not burn and does not rot, which suits a basement or a shop. Wood takes fasteners anywhere and is easier for backing and heavy fixings.

How we choose

Often a mix — steel for the long partition runs where straightness matters, wood where cabinets and heavy items are going. We will say which we would use where and why.

Crowning studs and checking for bow

Every stud has a curve

Lumber is rarely straight. Crowning means sighting each stud and setting them all with the bow facing the same way so the wall plane is consistent.

What happens without it

Studs set randomly give a wall that waves in and out, and in an Stewart Greens room with a window running along it, that shows through the finished paint no matter how good the taping.
