Keep metal framing and drywall on the same layout
Walls, openings, dimensions, and board requirements all have to meet the project layout. When framing and drywall are treated as separate tasks, a missed opening or handoff detail can slow the next stage of a renovation or build-out.
Solis builds interior metal-stud and drywall assemblies to the specified layout, carrying openings and finish handoff through the work. That keeps framing and board connected to the project documents and the sequence shared with other trades.
- Metal framing and board follow the specified layout.
- Openings and finish handoff carried through the work.

Lay out partitions from the current drawings
We set track, studs, openings and specified backing from the wall schedule and plan revision. Heights, door frames, bulkheads and head details change the framing and board, so the quote names each partition type and where it ends.
Close walls after services and backing are set
Before board goes on, the in-wall services and supports are in and any inspection is signed off. Then we close the wall and finish the joints, corners and returns. Electricians and plumbers get their access first.
Follow complete rated or sound assemblies
A wall marked for fire or sound follows its listed layers and perimeter details, which outrank a generic stud-and-board description. We keep the assembly number, penetrations and finish edge on the quote.

Office and hotel conversions
The City of Olympia's June 2026 development summary lists hotel and office conversions under construction. In a conversion, new partitions have to meet the old building's floors and ceilings, so we check those surfaces before we frame.
