About Our Framing Division

silhouette

I'm Dave Sherwood, serving as General Manager of Younger Brothers Construction, our company’s residential and commercial framing division. Since the company’s founding in 1975 we have completed thousands of projects that have provided unparalleled experience.

 Our scope

  • Single-family home building

  • Custom-home building

  • Multi-family home construction

  • Commercial shell

  • Tenant Improvement including metal stud and drywall

  • Remodel existing homes

  • Prefabricated Truss and Wall Panel design for all applications

Our scale

  • Today we are a leader in using cutting-edge technology to minimize on-site framing time thus optimizing efficiency and increasing profitability for our building partners.

  • Our innovative culture, willingness to adapt and commitment to our customers and community are reasons why we consistently surpass industry standards.

  • No job is too small or too big for us. Over the decades we have earned the reputation as the “can do innovators.”

  • We remain committed to continuously seeking better construction methods for the benefit of our customers.

  • Our true hallmark: the pride we take in our superior customer service.

Best practices to your benefit

Our mission is clear and steadfast: to supply our customers and trade partners with a best in class framed product while reducing customer service calls and back-charges. We engineer quality into our work. A team of specialists walks every job we frame to assure our work meets the highest quality standards.

A Layout Team works closely with our customer’s Field Manager to confirm all plan redlines and to ensure special needs are met. We capture and record changes on building plans to assure the final product is built to rigorous quality specifications, every time.

Many customer plans are designed and estimated using a custom-developed CAD-CAM software to assure integration of the most up-to-date building techniques and technologies. This continual attention to detail guarantees consistency of product, reduction in construction delays and the accuracy of information needed to build every home on time, right the first time.

More about framing

  • Residential Division: we currently build for 24 local and national homebuilders. We have long-standing relationships having worked with many homebuilders since their inception. We consider ourselves partners with our builders and pay attention to their wants and needs so as to exceed their expectations. We work closely with other trades on the job site to assure we solve problems and hand off our work efficiently.

  • Commercial Division: our commercial division prides itself on a “cycle-time” mentality to better serve builder needs. We understand the time restrictions placed on general contractors and willingly work through overlays of sub-contractors to ensure successful project completion.

  • Innovative Design and Estimating: our prefabricated Wall Panels and Roof Trusses offer more consistent stud and hardware locations, less waste and are of higher quality than standard stick frame construction leading to fewer crew delays in the field.

  • Quality Materials and Best Building Systems: combined with the exclusive use of engineered studs (which resist bowing better than solid studs), our construction methods allow builders to turn lots faster and save in daily interest carry. With truss, panel and lumber operations all “in-house,” we’re better able to monitor quality and materials supply. The result: a higher quality, less costly, faster turnaround project for you.

Contact Us about your next project and experience for yourself the way we deliver on our promise to provide the best service, quality, value and price for your next construction or remodeling project.

Younger Brothers is committed to providing our customers the best service, quality and value in the construction industry.

Construction Quality and Safety

Quality: Younger Brothers subscribes to the Six Sigma principles of quality measurements to drive decisions relating to production, productivity, quality and safety. We have Six Sigma Black Belts and Champions on our team. We are trained in and practice lean principles.

Safety: Safety Behaviors are strictly enforced which are written safety and quality observations prepared by a team of independent inspectors. Our crews are scored based on these strict evaluations. These scores are used to determine overall compliance. Weekly toolbox and safety meetings are required at Younger Brothers to reinforce Safety Behaviors by discussing observational results and incident investigation.

Bundled Services

Combining several critical trades is a construction method known as “bundling” which adds value by reducing cost and cycle time.

Younger Brothers is a trade contractor. We have our own in-house teams of craftsmen for Concrete, Framing, Plumbing and Termite Pretreat. When a builder selects our Bundled Services, YB constructs the house in sequence from layout to soils, plumbing to concrete and framing to plumbing top out. Since we are the only contractor a builder has to engage, our single source construction approach assures ready-built relationships, easier scheduling and fewer trade-to-trade handoff errors than coordinating between four trades. Wouldn’t you rather concentrate on managing your daily workload versus the rework that can be caused by your front-end trades?
