Basement drywall board types used in Rutherford homes in Edmonton

Standard drywall — interior basement walls in Rutherford

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

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

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