At Mar Framing, we recently completed a unique structural framing project in Oakville, Ontario, involving a designated heritage home that was raised and relocated to an adjacent lot — a rare and complex undertaking.
Our team was brought in to handle the new 1,200 sq. ft. addition, which included the installation of steel beams to remove existing load bearing walls and support the updated layout. The roof was hand-framed, allowing us to match the architectural style of the original home while accommodating modern construction standards.
This project required close coordination with engineers, heritage planners, and inspectors to ensure the entire structure — old and new — met Ontario Building Code requirements. By combining traditional framing techniques with modern structural solutions, we helped preserve the character of the heritage home while creating a strong, open, and functional new space.
