When a GC puts a wood framing scope with The Edge, they get the same rigor that drives our metal stud work: accurate layout from day one, daily schedule tracking, and Procore on every project so nothing falls through the cracks. We've been executing wood framing on Chicago-area commercial and multi-family projects for 30 years — enough experience to handle complex assemblies and the systems to keep your schedule moving.
We handle wood framing for multi-family residential, mixed-use developments, boutique hotels, retail buildouts, and light commercial construction throughout the greater Chicago area. Our crews are experienced with platform framing, engineered lumber systems, and hybrid projects that combine wood and metal stud framing under a single subcontract — giving GCs one point of contact and zero coordination gaps between framing trades.

Every project starts with accurate layout — wall lines, bearing points, and floor assembly alignment established before the first board goes up.
Procore on Every Job
Submittals, RFIs, and daily logs managed in Procore — so GCs and owners always have a clear, real-time picture of where the job stands.
Wood + Metal Hybrid Scopes
Many commercial projects require both wood and metal stud framing. We self-perform both — one subcontract, no handoff risk.
Schedule-Driven
Tight daily tracking against the project schedule keeps our crews, your GC, and downstream trades fully aligned — no surprises.
How We Work
From pre-bid coordination to final inspection, every step is deliberate.
We review structural drawings, specifications, and sequencing requirements early — flagging scope conflicts and coordination issues before bidding. Procore is stood up from day one so nothing falls through the cracks.
Accurate layout establishes bearing walls, partition lines, and floor assembly references — the foundation every downstream trade depends on. Materials are staged and crews are briefed before mobilizing.
Experienced crews execute the framing scope with tight daily tracking against schedule. Complex assemblies, engineered lumber elements, and hybrid metal/wood zones are pre-planned before crews mobilize.
Completed framing is inspected against approved drawings before handoff to drywall, MEP, and finish trades — reducing RFIs and field changes downstream.

Common Questions
Multi-family residential, mixed-use developments, townhome communities, boutique hotels, and low-rise commercial buildouts. We're also well-suited for projects that combine wood framing with metal stud interiors — we self-perform both under a single subcontract, which eliminates the coordination gap between framing trades and keeps your submittal log clean.
Multi-family wood frame projects run on tight, repetitive schedules where a framing sub that falls behind cascades into every trade that follows. We track daily production against the schedule and adjust crew sizes proactively — before you have to ask. Procore gives the GC real-time visibility into daily logs and progress without requiring a site visit or a phone call.
Yes. We self-perform both wood framing and metal stud framing, which allows us to handle hybrid projects under a single subcontract. This eliminates the coordination gap between framing trades — a common source of RFIs, scheduling conflicts, and field errors — and gives GCs a single point of accountability for the entire framing scope.
Absolutely. We coordinate directly with structural, MEP, and architectural teams before mobilizing. Every project runs on Procore — submittals, RFIs, and daily logs in one platform — so all parties stay aligned in real time and conflicts get resolved before they cause costly field changes.
We serve the entire greater Chicago metropolitan area including the City of Chicago, the North Shore, western suburbs (Bartlett, Elgin, Naperville, Schaumburg), southern suburbs, and the broader Chicagoland region. Our office is located in Bartlett, IL.
Yes. Our drywall shape prefabrication shop supports large multi-family and commercial projects by pre-fabricating drywall shapes and assemblies off-site. This reduces field labor time, improves consistency, and keeps the overall project schedule moving. Drywall panels and header packages on large projects are purchased prefabricated from specialty suppliers — we supply the installation expertise.
