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

What affects the cost of legal suite drywall in Marlborough?

Suite size and required assemblies

The cost in Marlborough 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 Marlborough

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 Marlborough suite passes.

Our Marlborough legal suite drywall process, step by step

Fire separation first

In Marlborough 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 Marlborough: an inspection-passing suite that lives like a real home. Housing in Marlborough is mixed, which is why we look before we quote rather than after.

Fire, sound and moisture in a Marlborough suite

Fire and sound separation

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

Wet areas and finish

Moisture-resistant board covers bathrooms and wet zones; the suite finishes flat, ready for paint. The Marlborough assemblies are covered on Fire-Rated Drywall Calgary and Soundproofing Calgary. Marlborough spans a range of build eras, so what is behind the wall differs street to street.

Common legal suite situations in Marlborough

In Marlborough, marlborough's original ceilings were usually finished by hand, so no two rooms match exactly — we texture-match room by room rather than assuming one pattern covers the whole house. One fixed price after an honest on-site look, and the job done right the first time.
