Saint Helena 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 Main Street storefront. Saint Helena is an incorporated city in Napa County — not Yountville, not Calistoga, and not Rutherford. It has its own Building Division at City Hall, 1088 College Avenue. Street ZIP 94574 is Saint Helena. 94599 is Yountville. 94515 is Calistoga. This page is steel / metal stud framing at City of St. Helena 94574 addresses — Main Street, Spring Street, Adams Street, Pope Street, and College Avenue. The street decides the bid.
Text “Saint Helena” 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 Saint Helena
Interior partition walls
Track, studs, and bracing for new rooms, office layouts, and non-load-bearing walls in Saint Helena 94574 addresses. This is the skeleton the board hangs on.
Main Street TIs
Restaurant, tasting-room, hotel, shop, and commercial build-outs on Main Street — Saint Helena’s downtown — when the drawing says steel studs. If the plan names metal, that is the bid. Commercial framing →
Spring Street and Adams interiors
Office, inn, and shop partitions on Spring Street, Adams Street, and Pope Street. Occupied buildings change the layout — not the stud spec.
College Avenue and 94574 interiors
Civic-adjacent, shop, and house partitions on College Avenue, Oak Avenue, Madrona Avenue, and Sulphur Springs Avenue when the lot is City of St. Helena. Highway 29 is Main Street through town — city limits still decide the permit office.
House remodel and ADU partitions
New interior steel walls inside an existing Saint Helena 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.
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 Saint Helena Job
| Stud | Use it when | Skip it when |
|---|---|---|
| Light-gauge metal (what we frame) | Main Street TI, hotel or restaurant interior, tasting-room walls, rated partitions, 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 Saint Helena 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 |

Saint Helena Streets, ZIP, and Permits
Saint Helena is an incorporated city in Napa County — Napa Valley. This page uses street ZIP 94574. Area codes are 707 and 369. Nearby Yountville uses 94599. Rutherford uses 94573. Calistoga uses 94515. Deer Park uses 94576. City of Napa uses 94558 and 94559. Text the street so the bid matches City of St. Helena Building Division — not Town of Yountville Planning and Building at 6550 Yount Street, not City of Calistoga Building at 1232 Washington 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 St. Helena addresses run through City of St. Helena Community Development, Building Division, City Hall, 1088 College Avenue, St. Helena, CA 94574. Call (707) 967-2779. Email: building@cityofsthelena.gov. Planning: (707) 968-2659. City site is cityofsthelena.gov. Unincorporated vineyard and Deer Park lots that only use a Saint Helena mailing ZIP run through Napa County PBES — a different office.
Yountville sits south. Rutherford sits farther south. Calistoga sits north. Deer Park sits east. Highway 29 is Main Street through downtown. Silverado Trail sits east of town. Text the street so the bid matches City of St. Helena for a city address — not a Yountville 94599 permit, and not County PBES for a city lot.
Commercial work sits on Main Street, Spring Street, Adams Street, Pope Street, College Avenue, and Oak Avenue. Occupied restaurants, hotels, and open shops change the layout — not the stud spec.
The usual mismatch is treating a Main Street restaurant 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.
