Metal & Wood Framing Contractor Serving North Riverside & Chicagoland
Framing is the phase every other trade and every inspector depends on. Alfa Construction frames additions, commercial buildouts, and new construction in both metal stud and traditional wood, built square, plumb, and to code the first time.
Framing Work We Handle
Whether it's a wood-framed home addition or a metal stud buildout in a commercial space, framing sets the structure everything else is measured against.
Wood Framing
Traditional stick framing for residential additions, second stories, and new structures — walls, floor systems, and roof framing built to current code.
Metal Stud Framing
Cold-formed steel framing for commercial tenant buildouts and multi-family projects, where fire rating and consistent, warp-free walls matter.
Structural Repairs
Sistering joists, correcting settled framing, and reinforcing structure uncovered mid-renovation, without derailing the project timeline.
Why Framing Accuracy Matters
Out-of-square framing shows up later as doors that won't close, cabinets that won't sit flush, and drywall seams that crack. We frame to exact plan dimensions and check our own work against the drawings before we call in the next trade or the inspector.
Because Alfa Construction is design-build, the crew framing your project is working from plans our own team produced — not guessing at someone else's drawings.

Walls are laid out and checked against plan dimensions before a single stud goes up.
Framing & Bracing
Walls, floor systems, and roof structure are framed, squared, and braced to spec.
Inspection-Ready Handoff
Framing is self-checked and ready for inspection before the next trade starts.
