Legal suite drywall in Southbow Landing, 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 Southbow Landing we board and finish secondary suites to that spec so they pass. Southbow Landing is a growing Cochrane community where settling cracks and finishing work are common, so suite conversions are common here. We cover Southbow Landing and all of Cochrane, 7 days a week.

What affects the cost of legal suite drywall in Southbow Landing?

Suite size and required assemblies

The cost in Southbow Landing 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 Southbow Landing

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 Southbow Landing suite passes. Basement development is common in Southbow Landing, and a basement behaves differently from the rest of the house — cooler, damper, and less forgiving of a rushed finish.

Our Southbow Landing legal suite drywall process, step by step

Fire separation first

In Southbow Landing 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 Southbow Landing: an inspection-passing suite that lives like a real home. A lot of our Southbow Landing work starts in the basement, where the ceiling has to stay openable for the plumbing above it.

Wet areas and finish

Moisture-resistant board covers bathrooms and wet zones; the suite finishes flat, ready for paint. The Southbow Landing assemblies are covered on Fire-Rated Drywall Calgary and Soundproofing Calgary. Basement development is common in Southbow Landing, and a basement behaves differently from the rest of the house — cooler, damper, and less forgiving of a rushed finish.

What legal suite drywall usually involves in Southbow Landing

Southbow Landing spans a range of build eras, so what is behind the wall genuinely differs street to street — which is why we look before quoting the legal suite drywall rather than after.

Basements in Southbow Landing run cooler and damper than the rest of the house, and that affects both the board choice and how long each coat needs.
