Basement drywall work we do in King Edward Park

New basement development in King Edward Park — framed at possession, finished now

King Edward Park homeowners regularly finish their basements in the first two to five years after possession. The builder framed the space and rough-plumbed it — now it needs boarding, taping and finishing. We assess the framing, spec the right board for every surface and complete the basement to Level 4. When we leave, the space is paint-ready and ready for flooring, whether it becomes a home office, bedroom, recreation room or home theatre.

Legal suite boarding in King Edward Park basements

With the Edmonton rental market, a number of King Edward Park homeowners are building legal secondary suites in their unfinished basements. We board to the Edmonton spec: 5/8” Type X fire-rated on the ceiling between the suite and the main floor, STC soundproof board on party walls, moisture-resistant in the bathroom, laundry and any exterior wall. Fixed price, inspection-ready boarding.

What affects the cost of basement drywall in King Edward Park?

Linear footage, board type and basement layout in King Edward Park homes

The cost of basement drywall in King Edward Park comes down to five things: total linear footage of framed wall, ceiling square footage and height, the number of bulkheads, soffits and mechanical chases, board type (standard, moisture-resistant, soundproof and fire-rated are different costs), and how much mechanical, plumbing and structural work the walls need to accommodate. We measure your King Edward Park basement in person and fix the price before anything starts.

Legal suite requirements and basement drywall spec in King Edward Park

If the basement includes a legal secondary suite, the board spec changes significantly. The ceiling between an King Edward Park suite and the floor above requires 5/8” Type X fire-rated board. Party walls between the King Edward Park suite and the main living space need STC-rated soundproof board. Every exterior wall and wet area in an King Edward Park basement gets moisture-resistant board. In King Edward Park we spec this before we board — not after the inspection flags it.

Basement drywall board types used in King Edward Park homes

Standard drywall — interior basement walls in King Edward Park

Standard 1/2” drywall is correct for interior partition walls inside an King Edward Park basement that have no moisture exposure — the walls separating a home office from a bedroom, partition walls in a recreation room or home theatre. Lighter to hang, identical finish — it blends with the rest of the King Edward Park house. Most interior basement partition walls in King Edward Park homes use standard board.

Moisture-resistant, soundproof and fire-rated — where the spec matters in King Edward Park

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

Why Edmonton homeowners trust Emplastrum for basement drywall

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.
