Rooted in Humble Beginnings
Having your name tied to a company brings a unique sense of pride in your work. For Gary, building a positive reputation as a new framing contractor was crucial. As word about Franke Construction spread, the company began taking on larger projects, securing a space in the production housing market. With a growing team of over 150 employees, Franke Construction became a trusted name in the framing industry, known for our efficient workflows, trade expertise, and an unwavering commitment to quality. Managing six housing tracts at once and completing large-scale commercial projects, the company refined its processes to balance speed and precision—without ever compromising on our quality standards. After years of success in production housing, it was time for a new challenge.
In the early 2010s, Franke Construction shifted its primary focus to framing custom homes, bringing the same level of expertise and efficiency to a more specialized market. By applying the streamlined workflows developed in production housing, the company quickly gained traction in Ventura, Los Angeles, and Santa Barbara counties. This transition enabled Franke Construction to revolutionize custom home framing by providing unmatched efficiency and quality.
Today, Franke Construction remains fully committed to delivering high-quality framing services for custom homes, commercial projects, and more in Ventura, Los Angeles, and Santa Barbara counties. Our reputation for craftsmanship, reliability, and efficiency continues to drive us forward. As a family-owned company, we take pride in every project we undertake, upholding the same standards of excellence that have defined us since day one. Together, we aim to continue delivering exceptional results for our valued partners.
