Although with doubled up top plates “stacking” the framing is not technically necessary, its good practice as it creates the best space for other trades to follow to run their systems through the walls and between floors. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/601ec7c65d52e74622980113/dedd9b60-a7aa-403b-bdcd-b4ee84a15aa0/18+Chartwell_11_WEB.jpg Blogs - Walls: Part One - Make it stand out This is a great example of wall framing especially in the context of a renovation project. We can see clearly where the new framing has had to integrate into the old, and how in some cases modifications to the existing conditions allow us to satisfy certain architectural or design intentions. https://www.whiteoakhomes.ca/blog/category/Framing monthly 0.5 https://www.whiteoakhomes.ca/blog/category/Walls monthly 0.5 https://www.whiteoakhomes.ca/blog/tag/Window+Flashing monthly 0.5 https://www.whiteoakhomes.ca/blog/tag/Carpentry monthly 0.5 https://www.whiteoakhomes.ca/blog/tag/WRB monthly 0.5 https://www.whiteoakhomes.ca/blog/tag/Door+Flashing monthly 0.5 https://www.whiteoakhomes.ca/blog/tag/Framing monthly 0.5 https://www.whiteoakhomes.ca/blog/tag/Water+Management monthly 0.5 https://www.whiteoakhomes.ca/blog/tag/Walls monthly 0.5 https://www.whiteoakhomes.ca/about-general-contractor daily 1.0 2025-05-16 https://www.whiteoakhomes.ca/contracting-services daily 0.75 2025-04-18 https://www.whiteoakhomes.ca/contact daily 0.75 2025-04-18 https://www.whiteoakhomes.ca/testimonials daily 0.75 2025-04-18 https://www.whiteoakhomes.ca/framing-contractor daily 0.75 2025-04-18 https://www.whiteoakhomes.ca/framing-contractor/chartwell monthly 0.5 2025-02-27 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/601ec7c65d52e74622980113/85cd2728-51bc-4b36-b9e2-19aa753a663b/18+Chartwell_01_WEB.jpg Framing - Chartwell Renovation/Addition framed by White Oak Homes for Chatsworth Fine Homes.

A large steel beam spanned between two gables and we bumped out a dormer off the front. All conventionally hand cut. In this case, we cut a backing angle into our valleys which allowed us to raise the valleys enough to have them plane into the ceiling from below, this prevented having to strap the entire ceiling to plane out with the valleys and save the homeowners a healthy amount of money at a time when lumber prices were exorbitantly high. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/601ec7c65d52e74622980113/a14b3e66-af5f-4d6e-a742-14d91c5ba1bb/IMG_0178_Original.jpg Framing - Miscellaneous In progress framing at our Superior Ave framing project for Attard Construction.

Valleys maintaining a minimum of 2% slope run out future scupper locations which will direct water into downspouts away from the house and off of the roof. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/601ec7c65d52e74622980113/8e78741a-e9f7-43dc-9c4b-45c355adb6d7/IMG_8304_Original.jpg Framing - Miscellaneous Our Raymar renovation framing project in Oakville, entirely new floor plan on the interior. The entire house was resheated from the outside with Zip-R panels and openings remained covered for the duration of the project to retain warm workable temperatures inside during winter. https://www.whiteoakhomes.ca/deck-siding-porch-contractor daily 0.75 2025-04-18 https://www.whiteoakhomes.ca/deck-siding-porch-contractor/teal-road-siding monthly 0.5 2025-02-27 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/601ec7c65d52e74622980113/ba8f1dcf-f8c9-4da0-a055-7c8c0b7ce97b/Front2.jpg Exteriors -
