Basement drywall board types used in St. Albert homes in St. Albert

Standard drywall — interior basement walls in St. Albert

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

Moisture-resistant, soundproof and fire-rated — where the spec matters in St. Albert

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

Basement drywall board types in Edmonton homes in St. Albert

Standard drywall — interior basement walls away from moisture

Standard 1/2” drywall is fine for interior basement walls that have no moisture exposure — the walls separating rooms inside the basement, partition walls for a home office, bedroom or recreation room. Lighter to hang, identical finish — it blends with the rest of the St. Albert house. Most interior basement walls in Edmonton homes use standard board.

Moisture-resistant and fire-rated board — where it matters

Exterior foundation walls — the ones against the concrete — need moisture-resistant board, even with a vapour barrier behind the framing. Moisture-resistant board wraps every wall of St. Albert basement bathrooms and laundries. If you are converting an older Edmonton bungalow basement to a legal suite, the ceiling requires 5/8” Type X fire-rated board. Soundproof board for party walls between the suite and the rest of the house is worth doing right if you want the suite to be liveable and rentable.
