What to know about Framing
Framing is the skeleton of a renovation: the studs, plates, joists, rafters and headers that everything else is fastened to. Homeowners hire framers to divide a basement into rooms, add or move an interior wall, build the floor and walls of a rear addition, frame a dormer or a porch roof, or rebuild part of a floor after a leak or rot. Framing is judged on whether it's straight, plumb, square and strong enough for its loads, because drywall, cabinets, tile and trim will show every flaw in it.

Our New Brunswick guide has no rule written for this trade, so there is none below. That is not the same as nothing applying: ask for proof of insurance, and for anything that touches gas, wiring or drains, ask who is certified to do it.
Framing costs in Moncton
Prices depend on the details of your project. We only publish price ranges when they’re backed by real LokalMatch quote data or reliable sources. Until then, here’s what usually changes the price:

- Wood species or material
- Custom design compared with standard sizes
- Hardware, railings and finishing
- Removal of what's there now
- Permits and drawings, where needed
How to choose framers in Moncton
- Choose a carpenter whose past work matches your project, whether that's framing, trim, built-ins, stairs or a deck.
- Ask for drawings or a clear description of what will be built, including materials and finishes.
- For decks, stairs and railings, ask whether a permit is needed, since these are safety items.
- Get a written quote that says who supplies materials and whether finishing, such as painting or staining, is included.
- Ask how they'll handle surprises like rot or uneven walls and floors.
Questions to ask framers before you hire
- Can you show me photos of similar work you've done?
- What materials will you use, and why?
- Does this project need a permit, and will you get it?
- Is finishing, such as sanding, painting or staining, included?
- How will you attach the work to the existing structure?
- What warranty do you offer on your workmanship?
Framing permits in Moncton
Some framing work needs a permit or has to meet local bylaws. Rules vary by municipality, so ask your pro whether a permit is needed and who will apply for it — and check with your city or town if you’re unsure.

Common framing questions
Is LokalMatch free for homeowners?
Yes. You never pay LokalMatch to request quotes or talk to pros. Professionals pay a fee to connect with homeowners whose projects fit their business.
How many pros will contact me?
We introduce you to a small number of relevant pros — usually no more than three — so you’re not flooded with calls. If fewer pros are available in your area, we’ll tell you instead of promising quotes we can’t deliver.
Do I have to hire someone?
No. Requesting quotes doesn’t commit you to anything. Compare your options and hire only if someone is the right fit.
