Legal suite drywall in Citadel, built to the suite spec

A legal secondary suite has to meet the City of Calgary spec to pass inspection — fire-rated separation between the suite and the main floor, sound-dampened party walls and moisture-resistant board where it is needed. In Citadel we board and finish secondary suites to that spec so they pass. Citadel is mature suburb; basement dev + popcorn ceiling removal, so suite conversions are common here. We cover Citadel, Tuscany, Royal Oak, Rocky Ridge and every Calgary quadrant, 7 days a week.

What affects the cost of legal suite drywall in Citadel?

Suite size and required assemblies

The cost in Citadel depends on the suite size and the rated assemblies — the fire separation, sound walls and moisture-resistant areas all add to a plain basement finish. We price off the suite layout and the spec.

Built to pass in Citadel

Because Citadel is mature suburb; basement dev + popcorn ceiling removal, suite conversions are common here, and the drywall is a big part of passing inspection. We build the fire and sound assemblies to the City of Calgary suite spec so your Citadel suite passes.

Our Citadel legal suite drywall process, step by step

Fire separation first

In Citadel the key element is the fire-rated separation between the suite and the main floor — we install the required Type X ceiling assembly to spec.

Sound, moisture and finish

We add sound-dampening to the party walls so the suite and main floor are not living in each other's noise, moisture-resistant board in the bathroom and wet areas, then tape and finish everything flat. The result is a suite that passes inspection and feels like a proper home.

Fire, sound and moisture in a Citadel suite

Fire and sound separation

A Citadel legal suite needs a fire-rated ceiling and sound-dampened separation so it is safe and liveable. We build both into the drywall.

Moisture and finish

Bathrooms and wet areas get moisture-resistant board, and the whole suite is finished flat and paint-ready. See our fire-rated drywall and soundproofing pages for the assemblies involved.

Common legal suite situations in Citadel

In Citadel, settling cracks, nail pops and renovation drywall are common, and basement development is a frequent job. We handle all of it the same careful way — on-site quote, fixed price, done right.
