Legal suite drywall in Forest Heights, 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 Forest Heights we board and finish secondary suites to that spec so they pass. Forest Heights is an NW Calgary community with a mix of older homes and newer builds, so suite conversions are common here. We cover Forest Heights, Tuscany, Royal Oak, Rocky Ridge and every Calgary quadrant, 7 days a week.

What affects the cost of legal suite drywall in Forest Heights?

Suite size and required assemblies

The cost in Forest Heights 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 Forest Heights

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 Forest Heights suite passes. Housing in Forest Heights is mixed, which is why we look before we quote rather than after.

Our Forest Heights legal suite drywall process, step by step

Fire separation first

In Forest Heights 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 Forest Heights: an inspection-passing suite that lives like a real home.

Fire, sound and moisture in a Forest Heights suite

Fire and sound separation

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

Wet areas and finish

Moisture-resistant board covers bathrooms and wet zones; the suite finishes flat, ready for paint. The Forest Heights assemblies are covered on Fire-Rated Drywall Calgary and Soundproofing Calgary. In Forest Heights we see everything from original finishes to recent renovations on the same block.

Common legal suite situations in Forest Heights

In Forest Heights, by now most Forest Heights homes have been through at least one round of renovation, so we regularly patch drywall left rough behind old cabinetry or flooring trim, and skim whole rooms flat when owners are finally removing the original textured ceiling. Assessed on site, priced up front, and finished properly — every time.
