Drywall installation in Old Town, hung straight and screwed off right

The Old Town finish depends on plumb board, framed seams and the right screws before mud. In Old Town we board new builds, basements and renovations the way a finishing specialist wants it boarded. Old Town is an older Airdrie community where settling cracks, aging texture and the occasional plaster repair come up, so the installation work here is usually settling cracks, aging stipple and the odd plaster repair. We cover Old Town and all of Airdrie, 7 days a week.

What affects the cost of drywall installation in Old Town?

Square footage, board type and ceiling complexity

The cost of drywall installation in Old Town comes down to the total square footage, the board type (standard, moisture-resistant, fire-rated and soundproof price differently), and whether the job is a new development or a renovation around existing trades. We measure on site and give a fixed price before we start.

Board spec in Old Town

The work here usually calls for settling cracks, aging stipple and the odd plaster repair. Surface-by-surface mapping at the Old Town quote means a clean inspection. In older Old Town houses it is worth knowing whether there is lath behind the wall before anything is cut.

Our Old Town drywall installation process, step by step

Ceiling board first, always

Every boarding job in Old Town starts with the ceiling, because the wall board butts up under it and helps carry it. Wrong-order Old Town boarding cracks joints later.

Wall boarding

The Old Town walls get proper screws and seams landed on framing. Finished Old Town boarding goes straight to tape, rework-free. In older Old Town houses it is worth knowing whether there is lath behind the wall before anything is cut.

Drywall board types for Old Town homes

Standard board for most walls

Standard 1/2-inch drywall is correct for most interior walls and ceilings in Old Town away from moisture exposure.

Moisture-resistant, fire-rated and soundproof where the spec matters

Exterior basement walls and wet areas need moisture-resistant board; legal suite ceilings need fire-rated board; party walls need soundproof board. We specify the right product for every Old Town surface before we pull the first sheet. In older Old Town houses it is worth knowing whether there is lath behind the wall before anything is cut.

Drywall installation work we do in Old Town

Basement development and new builds

Basement development boarding is a common call — ceiling first, then walls, with moisture-resistant board on every exterior foundation wall.

Renovation boarding and additions

We also board after walls come down for kitchen open-ups, additions and bathroom relocations in Old Town, matching thickness and plane to the adjacent surfaces so there is no visible seam once finished.

Why Old Town homeowners trust Emplastrum for drywall installation

A finisher boards it best

Old Town taping problems almost always start as boarding problems underneath. We board every Old Town job the way we would want it boarded before we tape it.
