Metal Stud Work We Do in Daly City
Interior partition walls
Track, studs, and bracing for new rooms, office layouts, and non-load-bearing walls in 94014 and 94015. This is the skeleton the board hangs on.
Tenant improvement framing
Retail, restaurant, medical, and office build-outs on Mission Street, Serramonte Boulevard, and at Westlake. If the drawing says steel studs, that is the bid. Commercial framing →
Mission, Serramonte, and Westlake interiors
Shop partitions, restaurant walls, and rated assemblies on Mission Street, Serramonte Boulevard, and in Westlake inside city limits.
Soffits, bulkheads, and chases
Dropped ceilings, kitchen hood wraps, and framed openings so boxes, ducts, and lights have a home before drywall.
Fire-rated and heavier-gauge walls
Listed assemblies, Type X board later, and heavier studs when the plan or the engineer calls for them. The rating is the whole wall — not the stud alone.
Ranch remodel and ADU partitions
New interior steel walls inside an existing Daly City house when the finish needs a straighter plane than bowed lumber. Wood structure stays wood unless the plan says otherwise. Metal vs wood →
Frame and hang together
One crew frames the metal, hangs the board, and can finish it. Split bids leave missing backing and wavy walls. Services →
Which Stud Belongs on a Daly City Job
| Stud | Use it when | Skip it when |
|---|---|---|
| Light-gauge metal (what we frame) | Mission Street TI, Serramonte shops, Westlake suites, rated commercial walls, or a remodel that needs a flat plane for Level 4 / Level 5 | You need beams, columns, or structure that hold the building up — that is a different contractor |
| 25-ga interior studs | Short, non-load-bearing partitions with a normal finish | Tall walls, high-abuse corridors, or a spec that names 20-ga or heavier |
| 20-ga / heavier track and studs | Taller commercial walls, restaurant TIs, office interiors, or engineer notes | A simple closet that never needed the extra gauge |
| Wood studs | Most house walls in Westlake, Hillside, St. Francis Heights, and Top of the Hill with no commercial spec | The plan already says steel, or the finish will show every bow |
| Furring / hat channel on masonry | Concrete or masonry walls that need a cavity for boxes before drywall | Glue-only board on a finished living space |

Daly City Streets, ZIPs, and Permits
Daly City is an incorporated San Mateo County city — March 22, 1911. City delivery ZIPs on this page are 94014 and 94015 (94016 and 94017 are Daly City PO boxes). It uses the 650 and 415 area codes. Permits inside city limits run through the City of Daly City Building Division at 333 90th Street. ZIP 94014 also touches Colma — that is a different town. This page is the City of Daly City only. Text the street so the bid matches the address.
Mission Street carries Top of the Hill. Serramonte Boulevard and John Daly Boulevard run the commercial spine. Skyline Boulevard, Geneva Avenue, and Southgate Avenue tie Westlake and the hillside neighborhoods together. Occupied shops, Serramonte TIs, and Westlake houses change the layout — not the stud spec.
The usual mismatch is treating a Mission Street tenant wall like a bedroom 2×4 — or hanging a Level 5 commercial finish on Westlake framing that only needed wood hang-only. Interior metal studs do not hold a house up. Occupied houses, open shops, and after-hours offices need a clean layout, backing for cabinets and TVs, and a stud plane the finish can live with. Matching the spec still beats guessing the gauge. Send the plan sheet or a wide shot of the room. That photo decides wood hang-only vs new metal studs faster than a ZIP code.

No fake Daly City address. No structural steel building. No promise that metal studs hold a house up. We frame interior light-gauge walls and hang drywall on wood or steel. A closet does not need a shaft-wall spec. Colma shares parts of 94014 but is a different town. Pacifica, South San Francisco, and San Francisco are different cities.

Daly City Metal Stud FAQs
Do you do steel / metal stud framing in Daly City?
Yes. Interior light-gauge metal stud framing in Daly City, CA from our Fairfield shop — partitions, Mission Street and Serramonte TIs, Westlake interiors, soffits, heavier-gauge spec walls, and frame-and-hang.
Is this structural steel?
No. We frame interior light-gauge studs, track, headers, and soffits. Beams, columns, and structure that hold the building up are a different contractor.
Do Daly City houses use metal studs or wood?
Most house walls here are still wood. Metal wins on Mission Street and Serramonte TIs, Westlake interiors, rated partitions, and remodels that need a straighter plane for a smooth finish. If the drawing names the stud, that wins.
Can you frame a shop on Mission Street or Serramonte?
Yes. Occupied retail and restaurant TIs on Mission Street, Serramonte Boulevard, and at Westlake are a usual request — new partitions, soffits, and backing, then hang if the scope includes board.
Do you work occupied Daly City buildings?
Yes. Floors are protected and the layout is planned around an occupied house, an open Mission Street shop, or an after-hours office. A full TI is still a construction job — plan rooms.
