Legal suite drywall in Jensen, 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 Jensen we board and finish secondary suites to that spec so they pass. Jensen is an established Airdrie community where reno, repair and ceiling drywall are common, so suite conversions are common here. We cover Jensen and all of Airdrie, 7 days a week.

What affects the cost of legal suite drywall in Jensen?

Suite size and required assemblies

The cost in Jensen 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 Jensen

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 Jensen suite passes. In Jensen basements the deciding detail is usually access: what has to stay reachable once the ceiling is closed up.

Our Jensen legal suite drywall process, step by step

Fire separation first

In Jensen 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. A Jensen suite that satisfies the inspector and feels like home — that is the outcome. Basement development is common in Jensen, and a basement behaves differently from the rest of the house — cooler, damper, and less forgiving of a rushed finish.

Fire, sound and moisture in a Jensen suite

Fire and sound separation

A Jensen legal suite needs a fire-rated ceiling and sound-dampened separation so it is safe and liveable. Both assemblies are built into the Jensen drywall.

Finish and wet zones

Bathrooms get moisture-resistant board; everything finishes flat and paint-ready. Jensen readers can dig into Fire-Rated Drywall Calgary and Soundproofing Calgary for the assemblies.
