Basement drywall board types in Edmonton homes in Edmonton

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. Lighter to hang, identical finish — it blends with the rest of the Callaghan house. 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. Moisture-resistant board wraps every wall of Callaghan basement bathrooms and laundries. 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.

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.

Basement drywall board types used in Callaghan homes in Edmonton

Standard drywall — interior basement walls in Callaghan

Standard 1/2” drywall is correct for interior partition walls inside an Callaghan 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 Callaghan basements it saves handling effort while finishing exactly like the main floors. Most interior basement partition walls in Callaghan homes use standard board.

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

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

What affects the cost of basement drywall in Callaghan in Edmonton?

Size, board spec and finish level

The cost in Callaghan depends on the square footage, the board spec (moisture-resistant on exterior walls, fire-rated and soundproof if there is a suite), and the finish level. We price off the layout and a site look.
