In these rapidly changing times in the construction industry, contractors are faced with pressure to work faster, smarter and provide a higher standard of work. There exists a myth that speed and quality do not coexist. The reality is, with the right tools, mindset and work procedure to deliver that work, you can get your crew working efficiently and productively, without sacrificing quality.
At Monte Cristo, we do not subscribe to the notion of selling you originally designed and manufactured tools and systems at the expense of quality under the guise of speeding up work. We develop and manufacture tools and systems that assist professional framers and builders in their work, while allowing them a little more time to get the job done. If you’re ready to get your job site back to work in a productive manner while still completing quality work, here’s how.
Rework is one of the biggest killers of job site efficiency. Each project has its own set of unique situations to deal with, such as out of square walls, uneven top and bottom plates, or just a bad layout that is taking hours – even days to fix.
Monte Cristo has designed a product called the Sterling Wall Leveler to take the guess work out of wall leveling and layout. The Sterling Wall Leveler allows your crew to frame all walls plumb the first time, with less reliance on traditional methods, allowing for fewer quick adjustments later in the life of the home while framing. While your crew may be working on residential framing similar to the Sterling Wall Leveler, they need precision building tools when they scale up for commercial wall assemblies.
Why does it matter?
If your teams are leveling walls using methods that are decades-old, its the time to be smarter. Use tools designed to work in the challenges of today’s job site, durable, intuitive, built on the construction site for speed and precision.
A high-functioning team not only works faster, they work together. Implementing crew-wide standardization is one of the best methods to improve both efficiency and consistency.
At Monte Cristo, we assist framing teams develop repeatable processes with tool sets so that crews can use standardized workflows. When everyone on the crew uses the Sterling Leveler to square and plumb walls, you’re developing a unified approach that can scale across multiple job sites and crew rotations.
Pro tip: Initiate new hires and apprentices using Monte Cristo’s framing system from Day 1. This creates muscle memory and consistency for your entire crew regardless of who is on-site.
Every wasted minute in setup is a minute lost in production. Fast, accurate initial setups are crucial to a productive day on the job.
Our customers have reported significant reductions in morning delays thanks to how quickly the Sterling Wall Leveler can be deployed and aligned. Unlike traditional string lines or spirit levels, Monte Cristo tools are designed to reduce margin for error and eliminate time-consuming recalibrations.
What this means for you:
These time savings accumulate across a project, and they can be the difference between on-time delivery and missed milestones.
A tired crew is a slow crew. Repetitive strain and awkward movements aren’t just uncomfortable, they result in slower builds and higher injury rates.
Monte Cristo products are designed with ergonomics in mind. The Sterling Wall Leveler minimizes the need for bending, reaching, and squinting at measurements. It reduces fatigue while improving visibility and handling, even in challenging weather or lighting conditions.
When your crew feels better, they work better. Ergonomic design leads to fewer injuries, better morale, and greater day-to-day efficiency.
If your tools slow you down, you’re already falling behind.
At Monte Cristo, we build job site solutions that support your workflow, not interrupt it. Every component of our framing system is engineered to accelerate setup, increase accuracy, and enhance collaboration.
