Wood and steel in one sequence
One crew sets the steel and frames around it, so the structure rises in a single coordinated schedule.

Framing and steel installation are quoted as labour, with materials quoted separately for full cost visibility.

Common questions
Quick answers
What does Telles Contractors do?
Telles Contractors is a structural framing company serving Toronto and the Greater Toronto Area. We frame custom homes, install structural steel, and build additions and structural renovations. The company has been framing since 2007 and is led by Luiz Telles.
What size of home do you frame?
We frame custom homes of every size, from compact infill homes to large estates, including multi-storey builds with long spans, steel and complex roof structures.
How are your framing quotes structured?
We quote framing and steel installation as labour. Lumber, engineered wood and steel are quoted separately, which lets the builder or owner see each cost clearly and source materials through their preferred supplier.
How is framing cost calculated?
Framing cost is derived from the structural drawings. We take off every wall, floor system, roof plane, beam and steel member, then price the labour for each. Two homes with the same floor area can differ in framing cost by up to five times, because cost follows the engineering requirements of the structure.
