Expert Framing Contractors

As one of the Expert Framing Contractors, Coyote’s Renovations and Remodeling LLC plans, lays out, and builds the load-bearing skeleton that keeps your structure straight, square, and durable. We deliver home framing services that align structure with design, budget, and building code so every later trade has a reliable starting point. Our crew sequences work to reduce waste, maintain site safety, and keep your schedule predictable.

We frame new homes, additions, ADUs, garages, and targeted structural alterations with a consistent approach to accuracy and code compliance. We install plates, studs, joists, beams, and trusses to engineered specs; we sheathe, tie, and brace structures to resist lateral loads; and we coordinate anchor, connector, and fastener schedules with inspectors. Our Expert Framing Contractors perform residential framing, paying attention to moisture control, straightness, and fastening details that protect finishes for the long term.

What we typically handle:

  • Layout from benchmarks and control lines, with laser verification of square, level, and plumb
  • Sill prep, capillary breaks, and pressure-treated plates at concrete interfaces
  • Engineered beams, LVLs, PSLs, and correctly sized headers for openings and point loads
  • Floor systems: joist layout, hangers, blocking, fire-stopping, and subfloor installation
  • Walls and shear assemblies: panel layout, nailing patterns, hold-downs, straps, and HDU locations
  • Roof systems: truss set, stick framing, ridge and valley lines, hurricane ties, and roof sheathing
  • Openings and stairs: framed roughs for windows, doors, skylights, and code-compliant stairs
  • Weather-resistant barriers at framed walls that are awaiting cladding or siding

Process That Keeps Projects Moving

We front-load planning, coordinate with engineers when required, and sequence tasks to avoid rework. We verify material lists early, protect lumber on site, and stage cuts to minimize waste. As trusted framing contractors we document inspections, mark changes clearly, and maintain clean work zones so follow-on trades can start promptly. We provide home framing services including precise layout, consistent fastening, and a clear handoff to roofing, siding, drywall, and MEP trades.

Deliverables you can expect:

  • Marked framing plans and as-built notes where field changes occur
  • Photo logs of concealed connectors and shear details prior to cover-up
  • Fastener schedule cross-checked against engineered or prescriptive tables
  • Punch lists closed before the next trade mobilizes

Materials, Methods, and Local Code Alignment

We frame with kiln-dried, properly crowned lumber and select species to balance cost, availability, and stability. We specify sheathing thickness and panel orientation to match span and shear requirements. We align our work with Residential Specialty Code and local inspection practices, and we coordinate with structural engineers on non-prescriptive elements. As top framing contractors we select connectors, straps, and anchors that meet seismic requirements, and we detail transitions to keep water out and air sealing intact.

Method details that matter:

  • Crown and bow management to create flat planes for drywall and siding
  • Straight-edge and string checks for long walls to prevent wavy finishes
  • Deflection-aware spans for floors that feel solid underfoot
  • Airtight framing details at rim joists and top plates to support energy goals

Additions, ADUs, and Structural Repairs

Additions and ADUs demand careful tie-ins to existing structures. We evaluate load paths, align floor heights, and stitch new and old framing without creating cracks or sags later. We remove compromised members and sisters or replace them as needed, and upgrade connections where older homes lack modern hardware. Our approach to residential framing includes temporary shoring, safe demo, and methodical rebuilds that preserve neighboring finishes and utilities.

Targeted structural services:

  • Beam swaps for open-concept layouts
  • Header additions for larger window and door openings
  • Subfloor replacement and leveling over uneven framing
  • Roof dormers, vaulted ceilings, and tray ceiling framing

Why Choose Us

Engineer-Friendly Coordination

We read structural notes carefully, confirm load paths, and document connector installs to pass inspections cleanly and avoid costly rework.

Moisture-Smart Details

We integrate WRBs, flashings, and roof dry-in details that keep water out during build and protect framing before cladding goes on.

Clean, Safe, Organized Sites

We stage materials logically, maintain clear walkways, and secure open edges so crews work efficiently and safely.

Frequently Asked Questions

We establish control lines with a laser, crown studs consistently, and use string checks on long walls. Every plane is verified during layout to reduce corrections later.

Engineered lumber (LVL, PSL, I-joists) delivers higher strength and stability across long spans compared to dimensional lumber. We use it where loads, spans, or design call for precision performance.

Yes, we carefully remove existing walls and transfer loads to new beams or posts. Temporary shoring protects the structure while we install engineered headers or LVLs to carry the new load.

Yes. We set, brace, and align roof trusses according to engineered layouts. Connections are fastened with approved hardware, and we sheath and dry-in the roof for protection right away.
