Light-gauge steel and metal stud framing in Calistoga — interior partitions, tenant-improvement walls, soffits, and fire-rated assemblies. We frame the wall so the drywall stays flat: Lincoln Avenue shops and spas, Washington and Foothill interiors, hotel build-outs, and house remodels in 94515.
Calistoga Framing From the Fairfield Shop
Ron Hogan Drywall has been family-owned since 1970. We are based in Fairfield — a Napa Valley run, not a Lincoln Avenue storefront. Calistoga is an incorporated city at the north end of Napa Valley — not Saint Helena, not Yountville, and not unincorporated county land that only uses a 94515 mailing ZIP. It has its own Planning and Building Department at City Hall, 1232 Washington Street. Street ZIP 94515 is Calistoga. 94574 is Saint Helena. This page is steel / metal stud framing at City of Calistoga 94515 addresses — Lincoln Avenue, Washington Street, Foothill Boulevard, and Silverado Trail inside city limits. The street decides the bid.
Text “Calistoga” with the plans or a photo of the room. If the scope is interior metal studs — or frame-and-hang on the same trip — we schedule it.
Metal Stud Work We Do in Calistoga
Interior partition walls
Track, studs, and bracing for new rooms, office layouts, and non-load-bearing walls in Calistoga 94515 addresses. This is the skeleton the board hangs on.
Lincoln Avenue TIs
Spa, hotel, restaurant, shop, and commercial build-outs on Lincoln Avenue — Calistoga’s downtown — when the drawing says steel studs. If the plan names metal, that is the bid. Commercial framing →
Washington and Foothill interiors
Office, inn, and shop partitions on Washington Street and Foothill Boulevard. Occupied buildings change the layout — not the stud spec.
Spa, hotel, and 94515 interiors
Hospitality partitions and remodel walls when the lot is City of Calistoga. A 94515 mailing ZIP on a county vineyard is a different office.
House remodel and ADU partitions
New interior steel walls inside an existing Calistoga house when the finish needs a straighter plane than bowed lumber. Wood structure stays wood unless the plan says otherwise. Metal vs wood →
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. Interior metal studs are not a wildfire retrofit for the house.
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 Calistoga Job
| Stud | Use it when | Skip it when |
|---|---|---|
| Light-gauge metal (what we frame) | Lincoln Avenue TI, spa or hotel interior, rated walls, or a finish 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, kitchen-heavy restaurant TIs, or engineer notes | A simple closet that never needed the extra gauge |
| Wood studs | Most Calistoga house walls with no commercial spec | The plan already says steel, or the finish will show every bow |
| Furring / hat channel on masonry | Stone, brick, or masonry walls that need a cavity for boxes before drywall | Glue-only board on a finished living space |

Calistoga Streets, ZIP, and Permits
Calistoga is an incorporated city in Napa County — the north end of Napa Valley. This page uses street ZIP 94515. Area codes are 707 and 369. Nearby Saint Helena uses 94574. Yountville uses 94599. City of Napa uses 94558 and 94559. Text the street so the bid matches City of Calistoga Planning and Building — not City of St. Helena Building at 1088 College Avenue, not Town of Yountville Planning and Building at 6550 Yount Street, not City of Napa Building at 1600 First Street, and not Napa County Planning, Building and Environmental Services at 1195 Third Street for an unincorporated parcel.
Permits for City of Calistoga addresses run through City of Calistoga Planning and Building Department, City Hall, 1232 Washington Street, Calistoga, CA 94515. Call (707) 942-2827. Email: building@calistogaca.gov. City site is calistogaca.gov. Unincorporated lots that only use a 94515 mailing ZIP run through Napa County PBES — a different office.
Saint Helena sits south. Highway 29 becomes Foothill Boulevard through town. Lincoln Avenue is downtown. Silverado Trail sits east. Petrified Forest Road runs west. Text the street so the bid matches City of Calistoga for a city address — not a Saint Helena 94574 permit, and not County PBES for a city lot.
Commercial work sits on Lincoln Avenue, Washington Street, Foothill Boulevard, and other city streets. Occupied spas, hotels, and open shops change the layout — not the stud spec.
The usual mismatch is treating a Lincoln Avenue spa wall like a bedroom 2×4 — or hanging a Level 5 commercial finish on house framing that only needed wood hang-only. Interior metal studs do not hold the building up. Occupied houses and open shops 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.
