Framing 101: What to Know Before Your Addition or Remodel

Whether you're adding a room, removing a wall, or building out a space, framing is where the project's quality is set. Get it wrong and everything after suffers; get it right and the rest goes smoothly.

What framing involves

  • Building walls, partitions, and openings — square and level
  • Rough openings for doors and windows
  • Load considerations when removing or altering walls
  • Wood or metal studs depending on the project

Removing a wall? Read this

Not every wall can simply come out. Load-bearing walls need a properly sized beam and support. An experienced carpenter identifies this and frames the right solution.
