Steel / Metal Stud Framing in Tiburon, CA
Light-gauge steel and metal stud framing in Tiburon — interior partitions, tenant-improvement walls, soffits, and fire-rated assemblies. We frame the wall so the drywall stays flat: Main Street and Tiburon Boulevard shops, Paradise Drive interiors, and hillside house remodels in 94920.
Tiburon Framing From the Fairfield Shop
Ron Hogan Drywall has been family-owned since 1970. We are based in Fairfield — a peninsula run, not a Main Street storefront. Tiburon is an incorporated town in Marin County — not Belvedere, not Strawberry, and not Mill Valley. It has its own Building Division at 1505 Tiburon Boulevard. Street ZIP 94920 is shared with Belvedere. That ZIP does not decide the permit office. This page is steel / metal stud framing at Town of Tiburon addresses — Main Street, Tiburon Boulevard, Paradise Drive, and Trestle Glen Boulevard. The street decides the bid.
Text “Tiburon” 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 Tiburon
Interior partition walls
Track, studs, and bracing for new rooms, office layouts, and non-load-bearing walls at Town of Tiburon addresses. This is the skeleton the board hangs on.
Main Street and Tiburon Boulevard TIs
Restaurant, shop, office, and commercial build-outs on Main Street, Tiburon Boulevard, and Mar West Street when the drawing says steel studs. If the plan names metal, that is the bid. Commercial framing →
Paradise Drive and Trestle Glen interiors
Occupied-building partitions and remodel walls on Paradise Drive, Trestle Glen Boulevard, Beach Road, and hillside streets. Occupied buildings and steep driveways change the layout — not the stud spec.
Hillside house remodel partitions
New interior steel walls inside an existing Tiburon house when the finish needs a straighter plane than bowed lumber. Wood structure stays wood unless the plan says otherwise. Hill streets change the layout — not the stud spec. 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 Tiburon Job
| Stud | Use it when | Skip it when |
|---|---|---|
| Light-gauge metal (what we frame) | Main Street TI, Tiburon Boulevard shop, 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, restaurant TIs, or engineer notes | A simple closet that never needed the extra gauge |
| Wood studs | Most Tiburon house walls with no commercial spec | The plan already says steel, or the finish will show every bow |
| Furring / hat channel on masonry | Concrete, brick, or masonry walls that need a cavity for boxes before drywall | Glue-only board on a finished living space |

Tiburon Streets, ZIP, and Permits
Tiburon is an incorporated town in Marin County — on the Tiburon Peninsula, Highway 131, and the San Francisco ferry. The Town of Tiburon incorporated on June 23, 1964. Street ZIP 94920 is shared with Belvedere. Area codes are 415 and 628. Text the street so the bid matches Town of Tiburon Building Division at 1505 Tiburon Boulevard — not City of Belvedere Building at 450 San Rafael Avenue, not Marin County Building at 3501 Civic Center Drive in San Rafael for a Strawberry lot, and not City of Mill Valley Building at 26 Corte Madera Avenue.
Permits for Town of Tiburon addresses run through Town of Tiburon Building Division, Town Hall, 1505 Tiburon Boulevard, Tiburon, CA 94920. Call (415) 435-7380. Email: building@townoftiburon.gov. Town site is townoftiburon.org. A Belvedere address uses City of Belvedere Building. A Strawberry or other unincorporated peninsula lot uses Marin County Building. Those are different offices. Belvedere-Tiburon is a mailing label — not one city.
Belvedere sits on the southwest of the peninsula. Strawberry sits west toward Highway 101. Mill Valley sits west on East Blithedale. Sausalito sits south. Corte Madera sits north on Paradise Drive. Tiburon Boulevard is Highway 131 into downtown. Main Street is the ferry and shop core. Paradise Drive loops the east side. Trestle Glen Boulevard, Mar West Street, and Beach Road fill in the hill grid. Text the street so the bid matches Town of Tiburon for a town address — not a Belvedere city permit.
Commercial work sits on Main Street, Tiburon Boulevard, and Mar West Street. Occupied houses and open shops change the layout — not the stud spec. Hill streets, ferry traffic, and Town construction hours change the schedule — not the stud spec.
The usual mismatch is treating a Main Street shop 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.
