Legal Suite Drywall Westmount Okotoks | Fire & Sound Code

Legal suite drywall in Westmount, built to the suite spec

A legal secondary suite has to meet the Alberta Building Code 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 Westmount we board and finish secondary suites to that spec so they pass. Westmount is one of Okotoks’s older, established neighbourhoods, so our Westmount calls run to popcorn and stipple ceiling removal, settling-crack repair and refinishing tired drywall in original Westmount homes now well past their first few decades. We cover Westmount and all of Okotoks, 7 days a week.

What affects the cost of legal suite drywall in Westmount?

Suite size and required assemblies

The cost in Westmount 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 Westmount suite layout and the spec.

Built to pass in Westmount

Suite conversions come up in Westmount, and the drywall is a big part of passing inspection. We build the fire and sound assemblies to the Alberta Building Code suite spec so your Westmount suite passes.

Our Westmount legal suite drywall process, step by step

Fire separation first

In Westmount 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 Westmount 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 Westmount suite that passes inspection and feels like a proper home.

Fire, sound and moisture in a Westmount suite

Fire and sound separation

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

Moisture and finish

Bathrooms and wet areas get moisture-resistant board, and the whole Westmount suite is finished flat and paint-ready. See our fire-rated drywall Westmount and soundproofing Westmount pages for the assemblies involved.
