Drywall boarding in Saddlewood, hung straight and square

Every Saddlewood finish rests on the boarding: sheets tight and square, joints staggered, and the right board in the right place. In Saddlewood we board new builds, additions, basements and renos as a standalone stage, ready for your taper or for us to finish. Saddlewood is a newer Cochrane community where finishing and basement work are common, so boarding work here is steady. We cover Saddlewood and all of Cochrane, 7 days a week.

What affects the cost of drywall boarding in Saddlewood?

Area, board spec and access

The cost of boarding in Saddlewood tracks the square footage, the board spec (fire-rated, moisture-resistant and soundproof board cost more than standard), and access — high ceilings and tight stairwells take more time. We price off the framing and a site look.

The right board in Saddlewood

We put the correct board on every surface — moisture-resistant on exterior basement walls and wet areas, fire-rated on garage and suite separations — so your Saddlewood project meets code before the tape goes on. A lot of our Saddlewood work starts in the basement, where the ceiling has to stay openable for the plumbing above it.

Our Saddlewood drywall boarding process, step by step

Ceilings first, then walls

Boarding in Saddlewood is done in the right order — ceilings first so the wall sheets support the ceiling edges — with sheets hung tight to the framing and joints staggered so they do not line up and crack.

Square, tight and tape-ready

We cut clean around boxes and openings, keep gaps minimal for the taper, and check the board is flat and fastened properly before we leave. Clean boarding pays off twice in Saddlewood: faster finishing, flatter walls. A lot of our Saddlewood work starts in the basement, where the ceiling has to stay openable for the plumbing above it.
