Framing
Ensuring What’s Beneath the Surface is Built to Last
At Karga Construction, we don’t just install roofing or siding—we assess the structure beneath to make sure everything is sound, secure, and up to code. When you're replacing your roof or siding, it’s critical to inspect the underlying framing, including trusses, rafters, walls, fascia boards, tails, and roof decking.
Our team performs a full structural assessment to ensure your home or commercial property has a “nailable surface”—a secure base for roofing or siding materials. We follow Ohio code, which requires corrosion-resistant fasteners (minimum 12-gauge with a 3/8” head) that penetrate at least ¾” into the sheathing.
Our Approach
Thorough inspection – We identify common structural issues like warped or thin plywood, uneven framing, rot near gutters and eaves, and hidden damage beneath shingles
Hands-on evaluation – We walk the roof to locate soft spots and assess overall deck stability
Early detection – We check decking beneath the first rows of shingles where problems often begin
Clear documentation – Photo evidence provided so you can see exactly what we find
Transparent estimates – Multiple repair scenarios outlined, from minor sheet replacement to full deck replacement
Cost-conscious solutions – Plywood replacement priced significantly lower than most competitors
Integrity, Safety, and Speed
Karga Construction has extensive experience rebuilding homes, apartments, and commercial buildings after fire or water damage. We’ve worked with homeowners, insurance companies, and general contractors to restore properties and bring families back home safely and efficiently.
Fire Damage & Property Protection
Secure the Property – Protect valuables and prevent unauthorized access.
Demolition & Debris Removal – Tear down the damaged structure (room, garage, wall, etc.) and clear the site.
Weatherproofing – Shield your home from rain, snow, and wind.
Framing & Reconstruction – Rebuild the structure to meet current Ohio building codes.
Older homes often don’t meet today’s framing standards, so every rebuild is inspected by licensed engineers and city inspectors. We coordinate directly with your insurance company to ensure any hidden damage, especially water damage from firefighting efforts, is accounted for.
Budget Conscious
Thinking about adding a new deck, porch, patio cover, or room addition? We’ve got the team, tools, and know-how to bring your ideas to life—on time and within budget. We work directly with your engineer or architect, handle permitting, and ensure everything passes city inspection.
