Header Sizing Placement
Openings carry loads differently depending on span, wall type, and structure above. Timberr places headers, jacks, and bearing points to the plan so windows and doors are not installed under weak framing.

Why Timberr Framing
Window and Door Opening Framing in Hamilton, done right
Square Rough Openings
Installers need plumb jambs, level sills, and consistent rough sizes. We frame openings square so shimming, flashing, air sealing, and trim work start from a reliable structure.
Existing Wall Changes
New patio doors, enlarged windows, and moved interior doors often cut into existing studs or bearing. Timberr handles temporary support, reframing, and sheathing repair so the wall remains structurally sound.
Envelope-Ready Edges
Exterior openings need clean sheathing, sill support, and framing for flashing and cladding tie-ins. We leave the rough opening ready for weatherproofing details, not just a hole in the wall.
Our Process

Local Context
Window and Door Opening Framing in Hamilton
What Affects Your Window and Door Opening Framing Quote
Every window and door opening is a small structural decision: header size, king and jack studs, and rough opening tolerance all have to agree with the unit that's going in. Timberr Framing sizes headers to the actual span and load above, not a rule of thumb, and squares every rough opening so the window or door installer isn't shimming out a mistake.
Quotes depend on opening count, size, and whether they're cut into new walls or existing ones. Cutting into an existing wall means temporary support and a load check before the opening is cut. Timberr keeps every rough opening envelope-ready, square, and plumb, and coordinates timing with the GC so window and door installers can move in without delay.
Timberr Framing coordinates opening timing with the GC and the window or door supplier, so rough openings are framed, squared, and ready exactly when the installation crew is scheduled to arrive on site.
