Interior Wall Remodeling & Layout Changes
We reframe spaces to improve flow, functionality, and design. From wall relocations to new room layouts, we build the structure behind your vision.
01 · The Service
New layout, new flow — framed to the standard the finish demands.
Moving a wall sounds simple. In practice, it is one of the most structurally consequential things you can do to an existing home. Every interior wall relocation requires understanding what the existing wall is doing structurally — whether it is load-bearing, whether it carries mechanical systems, and how the loads currently running through it will be redirected once it is gone. Get that wrong, and the wall relocation becomes a much larger and more expensive problem.
We approach interior wall remodeling and layout changes with a structural assessment first. Before we touch anything, we identify the load path, confirm which walls are bearing and which are not, and coordinate with your structural engineer wherever an engineered solution is required. The plan is understood before the demolition begins.
Our interior remodeling framing scope covers wall relocations, room reconfigurations, corridor and hallway modifications, doorway additions and widenings, and full floor plan layout changes. We work from your architectural drawings and interior design package, and we build the new layout to the tolerance the finish trades — tile, millwork, drywall, and paint — depend on.
When we finish, the new layout is framed plumb and square, the load paths are properly transferred, the mechanical trades have clean paths for their systems, and the space is ready for the finish trades to bring the design to life.

02 · Scope of Work
What's included.
Drawing Review
Structural assessment of existing walls before demolition begins — load-bearing conditions, mechanical systems, and load paths identified and documented.
Foundation Framing
Temporary shoring installed wherever load-bearing walls are being removed or modified — structural continuity maintained throughout the remodeling sequence.
Floor Systems
Demolition of existing walls in the correct sequence — non-bearing partitions first, bearing walls only after shoring is confirmed in place.
Wall Framing
LVL beam and engineered header installations at new openings in load-bearing walls — sized and positioned per your structural engineer’s drawings.
Roof Structure
New partition wall framing built plumb, square, and at correct spacing — layout confirmed against the architectural drawings before any walls go up.
Structural Steel Integration
New doorway and opening rough openings framed and headered correctly — width, height, and header size per the drawings so finish trades don’t need field modifications.
Sheathing
Mechanical, electrical, and plumbing rough-in coordination — new wall locations confirmed with your trades before framing begins so systems run cleanly through the new layout.
Inspection Hand-off
Framing inspections coordinated with your general contractor and municipal inspector at each phase. We stay on site until sign-off is complete.
Site Clean-up
All demolition debris and lumber drops removed before we leave. Clean site handed off ready for mechanical rough-in and drywall.
03 · How It Works
Our process.
01
Structural Assessment & Layout Review
We review your architectural drawings and assess the existing wall conditions before we quote. Load-bearing walls, mechanical systems, and structural implications of the proposed layout are all identified and factored into our scope before we commit to a number.
02
Estimate & Sequence Plan
You receive a clear scope and price. We sequence the remodeling work — shoring, demolition, beam installation, new framing — in the correct structural order, and we coordinate with your mechanical trades so the new layout works for their systems as well as for the design.
03
Structural Remodeling Execution
We execute the layout change in the correct sequence — shoring first, demolition next, engineered beam installations, then new partition framing. Every phase is executed to the drawings and to the structural standard the new layout requires.
04
Inspection & Hand-off
We coordinate framing inspections at each phase with your general contractor and inspector. When the new layout is framed, signed off, and the site is clean, we hand off the space ready for mechanical rough-in, drywall, and the finish trades that follow.
