One trade partner for the full interior envelope.

Orbital Wall & Ceilings frames, boards, finishes and hangs the interiors of commercial, institutional and multi-family buildings. We take the scope from layout to the last ceiling tile with one crew, one superintendent and one point of contact for your project team.

The name is a small joke for people who know ceilings. The work is not. Straight studs, flat walls, level grids and a site left clean at the end of every shift.

From layout to last tile.

The interior scope touches every other trade on the job. We run it in four disciplined stages so nobody waits on us.

  1. 01

    Pre-construction

    Budget pricing, value engineering and a realistic schedule before the first stud arrives. We flag conflicts on paper, not on site.

  2. 02

    Layout & framing

    Laser layout from control lines, steel framed plumb and true, with backing and openings coordinated for mechanical, electrical and millwork.

  3. 03

    Board & finish

    Insulation, board and taping sequenced floor by floor, finished to the specified level and checked under raking light.

  4. 04

    Ceilings & close-out

    Grid, tile and specialty ceilings installed after the trades above are complete, then a walk-through, deficiencies cleared and the floor handed over clean.

What a general contractor can count on.

Safety first, every shift

Manpower that scales
Our own crews, sized to the schedule, with a dedicated superintendent on every project from mobilization to close-out.
Finish that survives the walk-through
We inspect our own work under critical light before you do, so deficiency lists stay short and hand-over stays on the date.
A clean site
Board offcuts, compound and dust are managed daily. The floor is ready for the next trade when we leave it.
