Basement drywall board types used in Belmont homes in Edmonton

Standard drywall — interior basement walls in Belmont

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

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

Exterior foundation walls in Belmont homes need moisture-resistant board even with a vapour barrier. For bathrooms and laundry in Belmont, moisture-resistant board goes on every wall. Code puts 5/8” Type X fire-rated board on every Belmont suite ceiling. The Belmont suite-to-main party wall is where STC soundproof board earns its cost — you can hear the difference. The Belmont quote includes a surface-by-surface map with the correct product specified up front.

Basement Drywall work we do in Belmont in Edmonton

Finishing an unfinished basement in a 1960s and 1970s Belmont home

A significant number of Belmont homes from the 1960s and 1970s have basements that were never finished, or were finished to a rough standard. We assess the framing, check for moisture, spec the right board for each surface and board, tape and mud the entire space to Level 4. We leave the basement paint-ready so the homeowner can move straight to flooring and paint.

Legal suite conversions in Belmont — boarding to code

Secondary suite conversions in Belmont homes from the 1960s and 1970s are one of the most common basement drywall calls we handle. The conversion requires 5/8” Type X fire-rated board on the ceiling between the suite and the floor above, soundproof board on party walls, and moisture-resistant board in any bathroom or laundry area. We board to the Edmonton spec and the suite passes inspection without a callback.

Why Edmonton homeowners trust Emplastrum for basement drywall in Edmonton

We spec the board before we touch the framing

Most drywall crews in Edmonton board everything the same way and leave the homeowner to sort out inspection issues later. We walk every basement before we price it and specify the right product for each surface in writing. Moisture-resistant where it belongs, fire-rated where code requires, soundproof where the spec calls for it. You will not be calling us back to redo board before a permit inspection.
