Our Klarvatten basement drywall process, step by step

Board selection and surface mapping before we pull the first sheet

Basement drywall in Klarvatten is not one-product-fits-all. Exterior foundation walls need moisture-resistant board. We spec moisture-resistant board wherever a Klarvatten wall meets a bathroom or laundry. Legal suite ceilings need fire-rated. Party walls need soundproof. Before materials are ordered we map the whole Klarvatten basement surface by surface — no inspection surprises.

Level 4 from board to sand

Then each seam, corner and fastener head is taped and mudded to Level 4 in three properly dried coats, sanded flat. Bulkheads, beams and posts are standard obstacles in a Klarvatten basement ceiling. In Klarvatten we finish those transitions to Level 4 — the same standard as every wall. When we leave the Klarvatten basement, it looks consistent from floor to ceiling.

New basement development in Klarvatten — framed at possession, finished now

Klarvatten 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 Klarvatten basements

With the Edmonton rental market, a number of Klarvatten 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 Klarvatten?

Linear footage, board type and basement layout in Klarvatten homes

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

Legal suite requirements and basement drywall spec in Klarvatten

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