Colorado Wood Framing Specialists
Pinkard Frameworks aims to modernize the wood framing industry by offering detailed project assessments, identifying value-adds, and ensuring on-site supervision of the wood framing process. Our team takes ownership of the wood frame scope through collaboration with contractors, architects, engineers, suppliers, and subcontractors. This holistic approach ensures critical elements work with all trades that rely on structural framing, saving time and money.
Why Pinkard Frameworks?
The Problem
There is no incentive for subcontractors to take ownership of the wood framing process. This causes schedule and quality issues that affect other trades.
Our Solution
Pinkard Frameworks provides preliminary truss design, in-house estimating, and shop drawing reviews to prevent conflicts and cascading issues that stop construction progress for redesigns.
On-Site Supervision
Our on-site framing superintendent is briefed throughout the design process and is a trained, experienced carpenter who manages all material and labor to the contract intent.
A Holistic Approach
Collaborating with truss fabricators in preconstruction is essential to achieve framing designs that meet architectural and structural intent, ensuring constructability, seamless integration with other trades, and a budget-friendly, faster, and higher-quality project.

Great constructability review
"Pinkard was good with the constructability review. Preconstruction. When given the opportunity, Pinkard did a great job with VE-type stuff, constructability, and asking some hard questions. I can remember the mechanical engineer getting grilled pretty well; somebody at Pinkard picked up that there were some issues with the ductwork."
