Putting The Wood To It
Framing is the most fun part of building. This is where all of your work becomes tangible. It actually starts to look like a house.Â
Framing begins immediately after your foundation passes inspection.
Take a moment to congratulate yourself.
You are a builder and this is your house.
If you can’t reach far enough to pat yourself on the back, your lumber sales rep will be glad to do it.
She’s making a commission off of your good work.

What Your Framer Will Do
He does just what the name says ─ he builds the frame.
And that’s the whole thing, all walls, floors (unless the house is one-story on slab foundation) and the roof decking.
The framer builds everything needed to get your house ready for shingles and mechanical rough-ins inside.
