Legal suite drywall in Elbow Park, 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 Elbow Park we board and finish secondary suites to that spec so they pass. Elbow Park is an established NW Calgary community where reno, repair and ceiling drywall are common, so suite conversions are common here. We cover Elbow Park, Tuscany, Royal Oak, Rocky Ridge and every Calgary quadrant, 7 days a week.

What affects the cost of legal suite drywall in Elbow Park?

Suite size and required assemblies

The cost in Elbow Park 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 Elbow Park

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 Elbow Park suite passes. Infill construction in Elbow Park means new-build finishing and old-house repair often run on the same block.

Our Elbow Park legal suite drywall process, step by step

Fire separation first

In Elbow Park 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 an Elbow Park suite that passes inspection and feels like a proper home. In older Elbow Park houses it is worth knowing whether there is lath behind the wall before anything is cut.

Fire, sound and moisture in an Elbow Park suite

Fire and sound separation

An Elbow Park legal suite needs a fire-rated ceiling and sound-dampened separation so it is safe and liveable. We build both into the Elbow Park 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 Elbow Park assemblies involved. Infill construction in Elbow Park means new-build finishing and old-house repair often run on the same block.
