Basement drywall and finishing in Kiniski Gardens, done to spec

We finish basements in Kiniski Gardens homes — boarding the framing, specifying the right board type for each surface, taping and mudding every joint and corner to Level 4, and leaving the space paint-ready. Kiniski Gardens is one of Mill Woods and Meadows’s newest communities — most homes are less than ten years old with framed, unfinished basements that homeowners are now ready to develop. We cover Kiniski Gardens, Bisset, Crawford Plains, Daly Grove and the surrounding area, 7 days a week.

New basement development in Kiniski Gardens — framed at possession, finished now

Kiniski Gardens 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 Kiniski Gardens 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 Kiniski Gardens?

Linear footage, board type and basement layout in Kiniski Gardens homes

The cost of basement drywall in Kiniski Gardens 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 Kiniski Gardens basement in person and fix the price before anything starts.

Legal suite requirements and basement drywall spec in Kiniski Gardens

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

Basement drywall board types used in Kiniski Gardens homes

Standard drywall — interior basement walls in Kiniski Gardens

Standard 1/2” drywall is correct for interior partition walls inside an Kiniski Gardens 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 Kiniski Gardens house. Most interior basement partition walls in Kiniski Gardens homes use standard board.

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

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

Basement Drywall Kiniski Gardens: your questions answered

Yes. We walk the finished Bisset, Crawford Plains, Daly Grove basement with you, and if something is not right we come back and make it right.
Do you take Kiniski Gardens basement finishing to Level 5?
Where the paint spec calls for it, yes — most basements finish well at Level 4, and we tell you honestly which your Kiniski Gardens project needs.
