Framing Tips

Construction framing is one the most important ingredients in a quality home. Framing acts like the foundation for your walls and ceiling. If the framing isn’t installed properly the entire house will be affected.

Framing can make slight adjustments for unlevel slab foundations.

Boards that push the straight edge away from the other wall boards more than 1/4" should be replaced. Same thing for the boards that are not touching the straight edge by 1/4".

The amount of wall boards needing changed out can be greatly reduced if the framer crowns all the boards before they are nailed, and takes out any boards that have more than a 3/8" crown. A crown is the hump you see in a board while looking down the board while it is turned on edge. This process will ensure that your walls are straight the first time around.

Square, straight, plumb, and level are the main things to keep in mind, and to check while your framing is being done. Square framing is especially important in the kitchen and in the bathrooms where there is going to be cabinets and or vanities.
