Steel / Metal Stud Framing in Redlands, CA
Light-gauge steel and metal stud framing in Redlands — interior partitions, tenant-improvement walls, soffits, and fire-rated assemblies. We frame the wall so the drywall stays flat: State Street shops, Redlands Boulevard build-outs, downtown Orange Street interiors, and house remodels in 92373 and 92374.
Redlands Framing From the Fairfield Shop
Ron Hogan Drywall has been family-owned since 1970. We are based in Fairfield, not a State Street storefront. Redlands is an incorporated city in San Bernardino County — Inland Empire — not Loma Linda, not Mentone, and not Yucaipa. It has its own Building & Safety office at 35 Cajon Street. A Redlands mailing ZIP can still sit outside city limits. This page is steel / metal stud framing at City of Redlands 92373 and 92374 addresses — State Street, Orange Street, Redlands Boulevard, Citrus Avenue, Cajon Street, and Alabama Street. The street decides the bid.
Text “Redlands” 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 Redlands
Interior partition walls
Track, studs, and bracing for new rooms, office layouts, and non-load-bearing walls in Redlands 92373 / 92374 addresses. This is the skeleton the board hangs on.
Downtown State Street TIs
Shop, restaurant, office, and commercial build-outs on State Street and Orange Street when the drawing says steel studs. If the plan names metal, that is the bid. Commercial framing →
Redlands Boulevard and Citrus interiors
Retail and shop partitions on Redlands Boulevard, Citrus Avenue, Cajon Street, and Alabama Street. Loma Linda sits west — city limits still decide the permit office.
Colton Avenue and north Redlands interiors
House and commercial walls on Colton Avenue, Lugonia Avenue, Tennessee Street, and north Redlands 92374. Occupied houses change the layout — not the stud spec.
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.
House remodel and ADU partitions
New interior steel walls inside an existing Redlands 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 Redlands Job
| Stud | Use it when | Skip it when |
|---|---|---|
| Light-gauge metal (what we frame) | State Street TI, Redlands Boulevard shop, downtown office wall, rated 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, downtown TIs, or engineer notes | A simple closet that never needed the extra gauge |
| Wood studs | Most Redlands house walls 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 |

Redlands Streets, ZIP, and Permits
Redlands is an incorporated city in San Bernardino County — Inland Empire. This page uses street ZIPs 92373 and 92374. 92375 is a Redlands P.O. Box ZIP. Area codes are 909 and 840. Portions of 92373 and 92374 also touch Loma Linda, Mentone, and Highland mailing edges. Text the street so the bid matches City of Redlands Building & Safety — not City of Loma Linda Building, not City of Yucaipa Building, and not San Bernardino County Building for Mentone or another county parcel.
Permits for City of Redlands addresses run through City of Redlands Development Services, Building & Safety Division, One Stop Permit Center, 35 Cajon Street, Suite 15A, Redlands, CA 92373. Building: (909) 798-7536. One Stop Permit Center: (909) 798-7555. City site is redlands.gov. Unincorporated parcels that only use a Redlands mailing ZIP run through San Bernardino County Land Use Services / Building & Safety — a different office.
Loma Linda sits west. Mentone sits east. Yucaipa and Calimesa sit east and south. Highland sits north. San Bernardino sits west. I-10 and SR-210 cut the city. Text the street so the bid matches City of Redlands for a city address — not a Loma Linda 92354 permit, and not County Building for a city lot.
Commercial work sits on State Street, Orange Street, Redlands Boulevard, Citrus Avenue, Cajon Street, Alabama Street, Tennessee Street, Colton Avenue, and Lugonia Avenue. Occupied houses and open downtown shops change the layout — not the stud spec.
The usual mismatch is treating a State Street tenant 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.

Is this structural steel?

Do Redlands houses use metal studs or wood?

Can you frame a shop on State Street or Redlands Boulevard?
Yes. Occupied retail, restaurant, office, and commercial tenant improvements on State Street, Orange Street, Redlands Boulevard, and Citrus Avenue are a usual request — new partitions, soffits, and backing, then hang if the scope includes board.
Do you work occupied Redlands buildings?
Yes. Floors are protected and the layout is planned around an occupied house or an open downtown shop. A full TI is still a construction job — plan rooms.
