FRAMING & STRUCTURAL CARPENTRY

Home Addition Framing

Adding a room or second floor in Toronto? Framing can include new walls, floors, a roof and the planned tie to your home.

SERVICE SCOPE

What the work can include

An addition joins new framing to your home. It may include outside walls, floors, roof parts and openings shown in the plans.

The shape and state of your home can change the size and how the new work joins it. Share the plans. Tell the design team about changes found on site before framing starts.

We confirm the tie-in points with your home early. Then we plan the schedule with roofing, siding and other trades.

Connect new framing to your home

A home addition or second floor must join the existing home as shown in the plans. Work may include new walls, floors, roof parts, openings and planned connections.

  • New walls, floors and roofs shown in the plans

  • Planned openings and connections

Common questions about addition framing

Can you build a second-storey addition?

Yes. This depends on your drawings and an engineer’s check of your existing home.

Who confirms my existing home can support a second storey?

Ask a building professional, such as an engineer, to confirm this before framing begins.

Do you coordinate with my other trades during the addition?

Yes. We confirm the schedule with roofing, siding and other trades working on the same project.
