Legal suite drywall in Crawford Ranch, 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 Crawford Ranch we board and finish secondary suites to that spec so they pass. Crawford Ranch is a growing Cochrane community where settling cracks and finishing work are common, so suite conversions are common here. We cover Crawford Ranch and all of Cochrane, 7 days a week.

What affects the cost of legal suite drywall in Crawford Ranch?

Suite size and required assemblies

The cost in Crawford Ranch 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 Crawford Ranch

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 Crawford Ranch suite passes. In Crawford Ranch basements the deciding detail is usually access: what has to stay reachable once the ceiling is closed up.

Our Crawford Ranch legal suite drywall process, step by step

Fire separation first

In Crawford Ranch 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. What you end with in Crawford Ranch: an inspection-passing suite that lives like a real home. In Crawford Ranch basements the deciding detail is usually access: what has to stay reachable once the ceiling is closed up.

Fire, sound and moisture in a Crawford Ranch suite

Fire and sound separation

A Crawford Ranch legal suite needs a fire-rated ceiling and sound-dampened separation so it is safe and liveable. Both go into the Crawford Ranch build.

Wet areas and finish

Moisture-resistant board covers bathrooms and wet zones; the suite finishes flat, ready for paint. The Crawford Ranch assemblies are covered on Fire-Rated Drywall Calgary and Soundproofing Calgary.
