Basement drywall board types used in University of Alberta homes

Standard drywall — interior basement walls in University of Alberta

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

Moisture-resistant, soundproof and fire-rated — where the spec matters in University of Alberta

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

Our University of Alberta basement drywall process, step by step

Board selection and surface mapping before we pull the first sheet

Basement drywall in University of Alberta is not one-product-fits-all. Exterior foundation walls need moisture-resistant board. Walls beside a bathroom or laundry in an University of Alberta basement call for moisture-resistant board. Legal suite ceilings need fire-rated. Party walls need soundproof. We walk the University of Alberta basement and map every surface before speccing materials — so the order matches the job and inspection brings no surprises.

Boarding, taping and mudding to Level 4 throughout

With the right board on the right surfaces, every seam, corner and fastener head gets taped and mudded to Level 4 — three coats, proper drying, sanded flat. University of Alberta basement ceilings usually carry bulkheads, beam wraps and posts that the boarding has to negotiate. All of it gets taped to the same Level 4 standard we hold on University of Alberta walls. When we leave the University of Alberta basement, it looks consistent from floor to ceiling.
