Legal suite drywall in Diamond Cove, 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 Diamond Cove we board and finish secondary suites to that spec so they pass. Diamond Cove is a newer NW Calgary community where settling cracks, nail pops and basement finishing are common, so suite conversions are common here. We cover Diamond Cove, Brentwood, Charleswood, Collingwood and every Calgary quadrant, 7 days a week.

What affects the cost of legal suite drywall in Diamond Cove?

Suite size and required assemblies

The cost in Diamond Cove 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 Diamond Cove

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 Diamond Cove suite passes.

Our Diamond Cove legal suite drywall process, step by step

Fire separation first

In Diamond Cove 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 Diamond Cove suite that passes inspection and feels like a proper home.

Fire, sound and moisture in a Diamond Cove suite

Fire and sound separation

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

Moisture and finish

Bathrooms and wet areas get moisture-resistant board, and the whole suite finishes flat and paint-ready. See our Fire-Rated Drywall Calgary and Soundproofing Calgary pages for the Diamond Cove assemblies involved.
