Legal suite drywall in Falconridge, 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 Falconridge we board and finish secondary suites to that spec so they pass. Falconridge is an established NE Calgary community where repair and reno drywall are typical, so suite conversions are common here. We cover Falconridge, Saddle Ridge, Martindale, Taradale and every Calgary quadrant, 7 days a week.

What affects the cost of legal suite drywall in Falconridge?

Suite size and required assemblies

The cost in Falconridge 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 Falconridge

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 Falconridge suite passes. Where Falconridge still has stipple, we check how many coats are on it before deciding to match or remove.

Our Falconridge legal suite drywall process, step by step

Fire separation first

In Falconridge 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 Falconridge suite that passes inspection and feels like a proper home. Where Falconridge still has stipple, we check how many coats are on it before deciding to match or remove.

Fire, sound and moisture in a Falconridge suite

Fire and sound separation

A Falconridge legal suite needs a fire-rated ceiling and sound-dampened separation so it is safe and liveable. We build both into the Falconridge 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 Falconridge assemblies involved. Where Falconridge still has stipple, we check how many coats are on it before deciding to match or remove.

Common legal suite situations in Falconridge

In Falconridge, many Falconridge homes were built in the Poly-B plumbing era, so repipe patching is common — we close the plumber's access holes, tape, mud and texture-match invisibly. We also remove dated stipple ceilings and repair the settling cracks and nail pops that show up as homes age. Assessed on site, priced up front, and finished properly — every time.
