Framing in Westwood, square and ready for drywall

Turning an unfinished basement or an open floor plan into real rooms starts with the frame. In Westwood 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. Westwood 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 Westwood, Abbottsfield, Alberta Avenue, Beacon Heights and North Central, 7 days a week.

Westwood drywall in context

About Westwood

The character of Westwood has changed considerably in the second half of the 20th century.

What we see in Westwood

In Westwood the drywall work is plaster and lath repair, popcorn and stipple ceiling removal, careful patching into original surfaces. We confirm what your home actually needs on site, in writing, before anything starts.

Common framing situations in Westwood

Basement layouts

An established North Central community where reno, repair and ceiling drywall are common, so framing an unfinished basement into a usable layout is the call we hear most.

Partition changes

We also reframe and add partition walls in Westwood homes when a layout changes — closing an opening, splitting a room, or adding a closet or storage wall.

Our Westwood framing process, 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 Westwood 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 Westwood for the stage that follows.

Typical framing work in Westwood homes

Because Westwood is an older North Central community where settling cracks, aging texture and the occasional plaster repair come up, framing here often means reworking walls that have shifted or been altered over the decades, alongside basement development.
