Metal Stud Framing

Professional Metal Stud Framing in the GTA

Konstruction Group specializes in metal stud framing for multiplex residential buildings throughout Toronto. We supply and install - providing materials and labor as a complete turnkey package at the lowest market rates. We perform our own CFS takeoffs in-house, eliminating middlemen and passing the savings to you. Most modern duplexes, triplexes, and fourplexes are built with heavy gauge load-bearing steel stud exterior walls, and we handle all aspects - from structural exterior framing to interior partitions and fire-rated party walls. We also provide insulation and drywall services for a complete interior package.

Why Multiplexes Use Metal Framing

Heavy gauge steel stud framing has become the standard for multiplex construction in Toronto. Steel studs are non-combustible, helping achieve required fire separations between units. They're dimensionally stable - no warping, shrinking, or twisting over time. Load-bearing steel studs in 16, 14, or 12 gauge can support multiple storeys while keeping wall thickness manageable. For builders constructing duplexes, triplexes, and fourplexes, metal framing delivers the structural performance and fire ratings these buildings require.

Party Walls Between Units

Fire-rated party walls between dwelling units are required by Ontario Building Code. These demising walls must achieve specific fire resistance ratings - typically 1-hour or 2-hour depending on building type. We frame party walls with the correct stud gauge, spacing, and assembly details to support fire-rated drywall and insulation. For enhanced fire protection, consider our spray-applied fireproofing. Proper party wall framing is critical for both fire safety and sound isolation between units.

Supply & Install at Lowest Market Rates

We provide complete supply and install packages for metal stud framing - you don't need to source materials separately. Our in-house estimators perform CFS takeoffs directly from your drawings, so there's no third-party markup on quantities. We buy materials at contractor pricing and pass those savings through to you. The result: competitive pricing that's hard to beat while maintaining quality materials and expert installation.

In-House CFS Takeoff

Our team does our own cold-formed steel takeoffs - we don't outsource estimation. This means faster turnaround on quotes, accurate material quantities based on years of field experience, and no wasted costs from over-ordering. When you request a quote, you're getting numbers from people who actually install metal framing and understand real-world requirements.

Any Complexity, Any Floor Count

We take on multiplex metal framing projects regardless of complexity. Two-storey duplexes, three-storey triplexes, four-storey stacked units - our crews have the experience to handle it. Complex floor plans, multiple unit configurations, and challenging architectural details are all within our capability. We work from your structural drawings and coordinate with your project team to deliver framing that meets specifications.
