Framing is when your home becomes real. Walls rise, rooms appear, and the plan starts to feel like daily life. Dry-in follows quickly with roofing, sheathing, and weather protection that keeps the structure secure through changing weather.

What Happens During Framing?

• Floor systems and wall framing
• Roof framing and structural connections
• Window and door openings set to plan
• Blocking and backing for cabinets, grab bars, and heavy fixtures

Pro tip: Walk the home during framing. Confirm sightlines, doorway widths, and storage locations while changes remain easy.

Dry-In Protects the Structure

Dry-in includes roof underlayment, roofing install, weather-resistant barriers, flashing, and window installation timing. A tight dry-in supports better insulation and long-term durability.

Set Up the Next Trades

Mechanical rough-ins run smoother when framing is clean and aligned. Clear chases, access points, and planned penetrations reduce rework.
