Insured & GS-VettedFraming Carpenters on your remodel
Structural framing for additions, wall removals, and layout changes — beams, headers, and floors that inspectors sign off without drama.
What framing work looks like on a GS project
- Load-bearing wall removal with engineered beams (LVL/steel) and proper temporary shoring
- Framing additions, dormers, and second-story build-outs
- Floor system repairs and leveling uncovered during demo
- Window and door opening changes with correct headers
When your project needs this trade
Open-concept conversions, additions, and any remodel that touches structure. Framing follows demolition and precedes every rough-in trade.
How GS vets and supervises this trade
- 1. Credentials on file. Licensing wherever Illinois or your municipality requires it, plus current insurance certificates — checked before anyone sets foot on your property.
- 2. Proven on our jobs. Our bench is built from crews who have delivered on GS projects for years — not whoever answers a listing this week.
- 3. Supervised and sequenced. Your GS project lead schedules the crew, walks their work, and holds it to our punch-list standard before the next trade builds on top of it.
- 4. Covered by one warranty. Their work on your project is backed by GS — you call us, not them, if anything ever needs attention.
Framing Carpenters — common questions
- Can you remove the wall between my kitchen and living room?
-
Usually yes — most can be opened with an engineered beam. We confirm what is load-bearing, involve a structural engineer when required, and pull the structural permit before demo begins.
