Do you coordinate Overlanders framing with electricians and plumbers?

Yes — trades rough in cleanly because the Overlanders framing is sequenced for them, ahead of insulation and drywall.

Do you also do the drywall after framing in Overlanders?

Yes — one Overlanders contract covering frame and drywall, or just the framing for your own drywall crew.

Does a steel wall count as fire-rated?

No. Steel is non-combustible, which is why it appears in many rated assemblies, but a rating comes from the whole specified system — stud spacing, board type, layers and joint treatment. We build to the assembly on the drawings.

Do you stand behind your framing work in Overlanders?

Yes. We check every Overlanders layout is square before we hand it off, and if something is not right we come back and make it right.

Where wood is still the right answer

Fastening and load

Wood takes a screw anywhere along its length, which makes backing, cabinets, handrails and heavy fixings far simpler.

The practical mix

Many Overlanders jobs are best framed in steel for the long straight runs and wood where cabinets, vanities or grab bars are going. We would rather explain the mix than sell one material for the whole job.
