Legal suite drywall in Ravenswood, 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 Ravenswood we board and finish secondary suites to that spec so they pass. Ravenswood is a newer Airdrie community where settling cracks, nail pops and basement finishing are common, so suite conversions are common here. We cover Ravenswood and all of Airdrie, 7 days a week.

What affects the cost of legal suite drywall in Ravenswood?

Suite size and required assemblies

The cost in Ravenswood 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 Ravenswood

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 Ravenswood suite passes. Removal is a frequent Ravenswood request, and the age of the ceiling decides how that work is approached.

Our Ravenswood legal suite drywall process, step by step

Fire separation first

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

Fire, sound and moisture in a Ravenswood suite

Fire and sound separation

A Ravenswood legal suite needs a fire-rated ceiling and sound-dampened separation so it is safe and liveable. We build both into the Ravenswood 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 Ravenswood assemblies involved.
