Basement drywall and finishing in West Hillhurst, done to spec

The drywall decides a West Hillhurst basement build: right board against the foundation, sound assemblies for any suite, and a finish that is flat and ready for paint. In West Hillhurst we board, tape, mud and finish basement development to Level 4 or 5. West Hillhurst is an older NW Calgary community where settling cracks, aging texture and the occasional plaster repair come up, so basement work here is steady. We cover West Hillhurst, Brentwood, Charleswood, Collingwood and every Calgary quadrant, 7 days a week.

What affects the cost of basement drywall in West Hillhurst?

Size, board spec and finish level

The cost in West Hillhurst depends on the square footage, the board spec (moisture-resistant on exterior walls, fire-rated and soundproof if there is a suite), and the finish level. We price off the layout and a site look.

Basement development in West Hillhurst

Basement development is a steady call here, and we put the right board where the plan and code require it. In older West Hillhurst houses it is worth knowing whether there is lath behind the wall before anything is cut.

Our West Hillhurst basement drywall process, step by step

Board to spec

In West Hillhurst we board ceiling first, then walls, with moisture-resistant board on every exterior foundation wall and fire-rated or soundproof board where a suite is involved.

Taping, mud and the finish

Common basement drywall situations in West Hillhurst
