Steel Stud & Structural Steel Framing
Precise, non-combustible framing built to spec.
Overview
Light-gauge steel stud framing is the backbone of most commercial interiors in Victoria BC. We install interior partitions, demising walls, bulkheads, ceilings and structural steel framing with the layout accuracy the rest of the trades depend on. Every assembly is built to the drawings, inspected, and ready for drywall.
