Who We Are

Arm & Hammer Framers has been standing walls since 1988. Owner Tim Yniguez runs the company the way a framing contractor should be run: on the job, reading the drawings, and accountable for every plate, header, and shear panel the crew puts up. Our work is in Arizona — deepest in the Phoenix metro and West Valley, and statewide from Tucson to Prescott and Flagstaff.

We frame for custom home builders, commercial general contractors, production builders, and homeowners acting as their own GC. Our range runs from production tract phases to a 28,000 sq ft desert custom, and includes a 68-home production run for a single Phoenix-metro builder. That mix is deliberate: production work keeps the crew fast, and custom work keeps it precise.

Why Builders Hire Us

We frame to the drawings — not to habit

A wall 3/4" out of plumb, a header undersized for its span, a shear wall nailed to the wrong schedule — these disappear behind drywall and compound through every trade that follows. We work from stamped structural drawings, verify foundation conditions before the first mudsill goes down, and install nailing schedules and hardware exactly as the engineer specified.

Desert framing, done right

Arizona framing has its own rules. Monsoon wind is the structural driver: hurricane straps or clips at every rafter and truss tail, installed to the engineer's pattern. Heat is the schedule driver: lumber that sits unshaded on a slab warps, so walls stand the day the package lands. And in Prescott and Flagstaff, real snow loads change the roof math entirely. We have framed all of it, and it shows in how we read a plan set.

Our own equipment, our own crews

When the lumber package lands, Arm & Hammer telehandlers stand the walls and set the beams. No waiting on rented equipment or borrowed operators — material handling stays on our schedule, which keeps your schedule intact.

Clean inspections

Before we call for inspection we walk the structure ourselves: fire blocking, header sizing, shear-wall nailing, strap installation. Corrections happen before the inspector arrives, so downstream trades mobilize on time.
