Standard drywall — interior basement walls in Beaumaris

Standard 1/2” drywall is correct for interior partition walls inside an Beaumaris basement that have no moisture exposure — the walls separating a home office from a bedroom, partition walls in a recreation room or home theatre. It handles lighter on site and finishes identically to the rest of your Beaumaris home. Most interior basement partition walls in Beaumaris homes use standard board.

Moisture-resistant, soundproof and fire-rated — where the spec matters in Beaumaris

Exterior foundation walls in Beaumaris homes need moisture-resistant board even with a vapour barrier. Beaumaris basement bathrooms and laundry rooms take moisture-resistant board wall-to-wall. Beaumaris legal suite ceilings require 5/8” Type X fire-rated board. Party walls between an Beaumaris suite and the main living space benefit significantly from STC soundproof board — the difference is audible. We map each Beaumaris surface at the on-site quote and specify the right product before we start.

We spec the board before we touch the framing in Beaumaris

Most drywall crews board every surface the same way and leave the homeowner to deal with inspection issues after.

Standard drywall — interior basement walls away from moisture

Standard 1/2” drywall is fine for interior basement walls that have no moisture exposure — the walls separating rooms inside the basement, partition walls for a home office, bedroom or recreation room. In Beaumaris basements it saves handling effort while finishing exactly like the main floors. Most interior basement walls in Edmonton homes use standard board.

Moisture-resistant and fire-rated board — where it matters

Exterior foundation walls — the ones against the concrete — need moisture-resistant board, even with a vapour barrier behind the framing. For bathrooms and laundry in Beaumaris, moisture-resistant board goes on every wall. If you are converting an older Edmonton bungalow basement to a legal suite, the ceiling requires 5/8” Type X fire-rated board. Soundproof board for party walls between the suite and the rest of the house is worth doing right if you want the suite to be liveable and rentable.

What affects the cost of basement drywall in Albany, Athlone, Baranow?
