Structural Repair & Framing Services in Macomb County
Structural repair is the restoration of a building’s load-bearing integrity following fire, water, impact, or age-related failure. At CONSTRUCTEAM, we specialize in high-stakes framing and structural reconstruction—from emergency shoring and floor joist repair to complex roof truss restoration across Metro Detroit.
Restoring the "Skeleton" of Your Property
A building’s frame is its most critical system. Whether your structure has been compromised by a fallen tree, a vehicle impact, or long-term water rot, we provide the technical expertise to make it whole again.

Our 3-Step Structural Recovery Process
We manage the technical complexities of structural work so you don’t have to worry about the safety of your home.
Step 1
Engineering & Scope Alignment
We evaluate the damage and, when necessary, work with structural engineers to develop a repair plan. We ensure your insurance scope accounts for the true structural requirements of the Michigan building code.
Step 2
Structural
Stabilization
Our team installs temporary shoring and supports to secure the property, allowing for safe removal of damaged materials without risking the rest of the structure.
Step 3
Presicion Framing
& Closeout
Our master carpenters execute the permanent repairs. We coordinate all municipal structural inspections to ensure the work is 100% compliant and your certificate of occupancy is protected.
PRO-TIP:
The Integrity Gap
Many homeowners make the mistake of repairing cosmetic drywall without addressing the underlying ‘skeleton.’ If your structural framing is even slightly out of alignment, you will face recurring cracks, sticking doors, and uneven floors for years. At CONSTRUCTEAM, we use laser-leveling and moisture-tracking to ensure the ‘bones’ of your home are perfectly square and dry before a single sheet of drywall is hung.

Insurance Advocacy: Structural work is expensive and often under-scoped by adjusters. We provide the documentation (thermal imaging, moisture maps, and engineering reports) to prove the necessity of the repair.

Structural Repair FAQs
How do I know if my home has structural damage?
Common signs include sagging rooflines, sticking windows/doors, large diagonal cracks in drywall, or “spongy” floors. If your home has suffered a fire or flood, structural damage is often hidden behind the walls.
Can you repair roof trusses instead of replacing them?
In many cases, yes. We can “sister” or reinforce damaged trusses using engineered plates and lumber, provided the repair meets local Michigan building codes and engineering standards.
Do structural repairs require a permit?
Yes. Any work involving the load-bearing “skeleton” of a building requires a structural permit and a series of inspections. CONSTRUCTEAM manages the entire permitting process with your local building department.
Do you offer residential structural repair contractors near me?
Yes. We are locally owned and operated in Fraser, MI, and provide full-scale structural repair services to homeowners and property managers throughout Macomb, Oakland, and Wayne Counties.
