Framing during a remodel serves several key purposes.
It’s often necessary when reconfiguring layouts, such as removing or adding walls to create open spaces or expand rooms. It’s also used for structural repairs, reinforcing or replacing damaged load-bearing walls to maintain stability.
Framing is crucial for adding extensions like new rooms or a second story, integrating these additions with the existing structure. Additionally, it supports the installation of new windows or doors by resizing or reinforcing openings. In all cases, framing ensures the home is functional, stable, and ready for further updates.
