Framing for Somerville Homes
We frame new construction and additions throughout Somerville. With local housing being Victorians, two-families and triple-deckers from the streetcar era, many in local historic districts, alongside heavily renovated postwar infill, tying new structure into old is routine work for us - and it is precisely where framing crews that only do new builds tend to struggle.
Framing is the one thing you can never fix cheaply later. Every finish in the house inherits whatever the framing did - so we take the extra day to get it plumb, level, and square before anything closes up.
What Somerville Properties Actually Need
- The housing stock here
- Two and three-family houses sit within a few feet of each other, so a wall that needs work is often unreachable without the abutter s cooperation.
- Working on the site
- One of the densest street grids in New England means deliveries are timed and staged rather than dropped.
- Permits and inspections
- The city enforces street occupancy rules strictly, and staging or containers need a permit with dates.
What Goes Wrong in Greater Boston
Undersized headers and spans
It passes visual inspection and sags five years later. Corrections after the fact mean opening finished walls and ceilings.
Failed inspection delays
Framing that doesn’t meet code stops the whole job while everyone waits on a re-inspection.
Out-of-square structure
Every trade after framing pays for it - cabinets that need shimming, floors that telegraph, doors that never quite hang right.
