Home Addition Framing Etobicoke — Licensed, Insured & 5-Star Rated

The cost of addition framing in Etobicoke depends on the project type, total square footage, and how much structural work is involved. Rear additions tend to be the most straightforward and affordable to frame. Second-floor additions on existing bungalows cost more because the foundation and first floor often need reinforcement.

Garage conversions and in-law suites vary with scope. To get an accurate price for your Etobicoke project, contact Timberr Framing for a free written quote — we assess your plans and existing structure before quoting.
