Our Framing Services In Thornhill
Addition Framing
Second-floor additions on bungalows, rear extensions, and garage conversions — the bread and butter of Thornhill's renovation market. Every addition is properly tied into the existing structure, engineered connections verified, and built to Ontario Building Code.
Renovation Framing
Load-bearing wall removal, open-concept conversions, and full interior re-framing. Many Thornhill homes from the 1960s through 1980s are being completely reimagined — and that starts with getting the structural framing right.

Complete basement framing including partition walls, utility separation, and egress window framing. Thornhill homeowners routinely finish basements to add bedrooms, rental suites, or family living space — we frame them to code and inspection-ready.
Custom Home Framing
Complete structural framing from foundation to roofline for custom home builds. Some Thornhill homeowners are tearing down older bungalows and building new — we frame the replacement from the ground up.
Metal Framing Contractor
Light gauge steel and metal stud framing for commercial, ICI, and multi-unit residential projects in the Thornhill area. Non-combustible, dimensionally stable, and engineered to spec.

We confirm your structural plans, material requirements, and schedule with you or your GC directly. For renovation and addition projects, we pay close attention to how the new framing connects to the existing structure.

How long does it take to frame an addition?
Most addition framing projects take one to two weeks depending on the size and complexity. A second-floor addition on a bungalow involves more structural tie-in work than a simple rear extension, so timelines vary.
Timberr Framing provides a detailed schedule during the quoting process and keeps you informed at every stage.
Can you add a second floor to my bungalow?
Yes. Second-floor additions on existing bungalows are one of the most common projects we handle in Thornhill. We frame the new level and properly tie it into the existing structure, ensuring all load paths are correct and the work meets Ontario Building Code.
We work from your engineer's and architect's approved plans and coordinate with your GC throughout.
Do you frame basements?
Yes. Timberr Framing provides complete basement framing for Thornhill homes — partition walls, utility room separation, egress window framing, and full build-out preparation.
Whether you are creating a rental suite, a family room, or extra bedrooms, we frame to code and leave everything inspection-ready.
Do you work with contractors on renovation projects?
Yes. Timberr Framing frequently works as a framing subcontractor for general contractors managing renovation projects in Thornhill.
We understand the pace and coordination demands of reno work — especially on occupied homes — and communicate directly with your GC to keep things on track.

Wood framing or metal framing — which do I need?
For most Thornhill residential projects — additions, renovations, basements — wood framing is the standard. It's cost-effective, fast, and meets code for typical residential construction.
Metal framing is required for certain commercial, ICI, and multi-unit residential projects where non-combustible materials are mandated by fire code. Timberr Framing handles both. See our metal framing services or custom home framing services for details.
Do I need a building permit for framing?
Yes, in most cases. Whether Thornhill falls under the City of Vaughan or City of Markham jurisdiction depends on your specific address — but either way, structural framing work requires a building permit before construction begins.
Timberr Framing builds to Ontario Building Code and delivers inspection-ready framing on every project.
What should I look for in a framing contractor?
Prioritize licensing, insurance, and a verified track record.
A reputable framing contractor will be fully licensed, carry proper liability insurance (we carry $5M), and have real reviews from past clients — not just a website. For renovation projects in Thornhill, also confirm the contractor has experience framing within existing structures, as this requires a different skill set than new construction.
Timberr Framing's 5.0 Google and 5.0 HomeStars ratings reflect consistent quality across all project types.
