Legal suite drywall in Crestmont, 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 Crestmont we board and finish secondary suites to that spec so they pass. Crestmont is one of NE Calgary's newer communities, where fresh installation and first-year settling work are common, so suite conversions are common here. We cover Crestmont, Saddle Ridge, Martindale, Taradale and every Calgary quadrant, 7 days a week.

What affects the cost of legal suite drywall in Crestmont?

Suite size and required assemblies

The cost in Crestmont 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 Crestmont

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 Crestmont suite passes.

Our Crestmont legal suite drywall process, step by step

Fire separation first

In Crestmont 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 finished Crestmont suite clears inspection and feels genuinely liveable.

Fire, sound and moisture in a Crestmont suite

Fire and sound separation

A Crestmont legal suite needs a fire-rated ceiling and sound-dampened separation so it is safe and liveable. The Crestmont drywall carries both.

Moisture protection and finishing

Wet areas take moisture-resistant board and the full suite leaves flat and paint-ready. For Crestmont assembly detail, see Fire-Rated Drywall Calgary and Soundproofing Calgary.

Common legal suite situations in Crestmont

We see fewer stipple-ceiling jobs in Crestmont than in older areas, since most homes here were built with smooth ceilings — the calls instead are wall-crack repair, nail pops, and the occasional renovation drywall job. That is the standard on every job here, big or small — on-site quote, fixed price.
