Strong framing is the backbone of every successful build. At VG Construction, we provide professional residential framing services throughout Gardnerville, Minden, Smith Valley, Yerington, Topaz Lake, and South Lake Tahoe—built for strength, accuracy, and long-term performance.

Structural Framing Built for Northern Nevada Conditions
Framing isn’t just about speed—it’s about building a structure that stays square, level, and solid for decades. Our framing work accounts for Northern Nevada’s wind loads, snow loads, seismic considerations, and elevation-related challenges.
We coordinate closely with plans, engineering requirements, and inspections to ensure every wall, opening, and roofline is framed correctly the first time.
Our framing services include:
New home framing
Garage framing (attached & detached)
Additions and expansions
ADUs and secondary structures
Roof systems and truss installation
Structural repairs and reframing
Shear walls and load-bearing assemblies
