Framing Contractor Toronto — Licensed, Insured & 5-Star Rated

Framing costs in Toronto depend on project type, scope, and site conditions. Urban builds often carry additional logistics costs due to tight lot access and delivery constraints.

A wood frame for a full custom home typically ranges from $20,000 to $80,000 or more depending on square footage and design complexity. Metal framing for condo and commercial builds is quoted by linear foot or total project scope.

Smaller projects like home addition framing and basement framing cost proportionally less. The best way to get an accurate price is to contact Timberr Framing for a free, detailed written quote based on your actual plans and site.

If your Toronto project involves structural framing, reach out to discuss.

A standard single-family home frame typically takes one to three weeks to complete. However, Toronto projects can be affected by delivery scheduling, narrow lot access, and inspection timelines.

Larger custom builds and multi-unit residential projects take longer. Timberr Framing provides a clear project schedule during the quoting process so you always know the timeline before we begin.

Yes. Metal framing is a core part of what we do in Toronto.

We frame with light gauge steel studs for commercial buildings, ICI construction, condo podium levels, and multi-unit residential developments. Metal framing is non-combustible and code-required for many Toronto building types, particularly mid-rise and mixed-use projects.

Absolutely. Timberr Framing provides complete basement framing — partition walls, utility room separation, egress window framing, and full build-out preparation for secondary suites.

Toronto's secondary suite bylaws have driven significant demand for legal basement apartments. We frame them to Ontario Building Code and leave everything inspection-ready for the City of Toronto.

Yes. Timberr Framing regularly works as a framing subcontractor for GCs, developers, and builders operating throughout Toronto.

Wood framing is standard for most residential construction — single-family homes, additions, basements, and renovations. It is cost-effective, fast to install, and ideal for Toronto's housing stock.

Metal framing uses light gauge steel studs and is required for commercial, ICI, and multi-unit residential buildings where fire code mandates non-combustible materials. Many Toronto mid-rise and mixed-use projects require metal framing by code.

Timberr Framing handles both. We will review your plans and advise on the right material — or coordinate directly with your structural engineer. See our metal framing services or custom home framing services for details.

Yes — virtually all framing work in Toronto requires a building permit from the City of Toronto. This includes new construction, structural additions, load-bearing modifications, and basement suite build-outs.

Timberr Framing builds every project to Ontario Building Code and ensures all work is inspection-ready at handoff. We do not pull permits on your behalf — that is handled by the homeowner or GC — but we frame to the exact specs your permit drawings require.

Look for three things: licensing, insurance, and verified reviews.

Toronto has no shortage of framing crews, but many operate without proper licensing or insurance. A legitimate framing contractor should be fully licensed in Ontario, carry adequate liability insurance (we carry $5M), and have real reviews from verifiable clients.

Ask for proof of insurance, recent project references, and confirmation that all work meets Ontario Building Code. Timberr Framing provides all documentation on request — and our 5.0 Google and 5.0 HomeStars ratings back up the quality of our work.
