Why is framing such an important part of a construction project?
Any building project’s skeleton, or the bones that hold it all together, is its framing. Small framing flaws compound into larger problems in the final product. Even seemingly insignificant details guarantee that corners are precise and floors don’t squeak.
Subfloor: Correct subfloor installation ensures that the flooring going on top will perform for its expected lifetime. Tile floors won’t crack, wood floors won’t creak, and carpeting remains stretched and smooth. LAC Builders pays special attention to small subfloor details, including floor joists, the opening for a stairway, and the installation of the sill plate.
Walls: Attention to every element of framing walls ensures that drywall installation provides smooth, flat walls and doors that hang correctly and open and close quickly. Corners must be square to ensure that cabinets fit and that wood or tile flooring lines up to provide visual appeal. Likewise, window and door headers must be plumb to ensure that components fit. LAC Builders framing crew pays attention to blocking to ensure walls don’t warp and for cabinet and baseboard installation.
Moisture: LAC Builders team knows the importance of keeping framing lumber dry. After delivery, the framing crew ensures the lumber has the proper moisture content. Lumber is protected to ensure that it stays dry during framing. If the moisture content is too high, mold may form within the walls. Homeowners may also hear popping and cracking as the lumber dries behind drywall. Moisture can contribute to squeaky floors and stairs.
Roof. Framing an intricate roof design requires a custom framing expert. Custom homes often have featureless standard roof designs. These projects require skill and finesse to achieve both aesthetics and functionality. LAC Builders staff is experienced in complex roof designs so that your project stays on schedule and on budget.
