Basement conversions and suite additions in established Edmonton neighbourhoods

Our Canora basement drywall process, step by step

Board selection and surface mapping before we pull the first sheet

Basement drywall in Canora is not one-product-fits-all. Exterior foundation walls need moisture-resistant board. Walls beside a bathroom or laundry in an Canora basement call for moisture-resistant board. Legal suite ceilings need fire-rated. Party walls need soundproof. Mapping first in Canora: every surface assessed before the spec, so the material order is exact and inspection is clean.

Taped and mudded to Level 4 throughout

Seams, corners and fastener heads all reach Level 4 — three coats, real drying time, flat sand. Canora basement ceilings usually carry bulkheads, beam wraps and posts that the boarding has to negotiate. All of it gets taped to the same Level 4 standard we hold on Canora walls. When we leave the Canora basement, it looks consistent from floor to ceiling.
