Do you stand behind your boarding in Bonnie Doon?

Yes. We check the board is flat and fastened before we leave your Avonmore, Capilano, Cloverdale job, and if something is not right we come back and make it right.

Why does it matter who hangs the board if someone else tapes it?

Because the finisher can only work with what they are given. Sheet layout, butt joints and whether edges land on framing are all decided at hanging, and good hanging costs the same in materials as bad hanging.

Will you hang the board in Bonnie Doon and let our taper finish?

Yes — we hang straight and square as a standalone stage, ready for your taper, or we can board and finish it as one job in your Bonnie Doon home.

Can you board over my existing plaster?

Often yes, and where plaster is failing across a whole wall it can be faster and flatter than rebuilding it. It costs wall thickness at every opening though — reveals, casings and outlets all need extending, and that is usually what decides it.

Yes. We check the board is flat and fastened before we leave your Bonnie Doon job, and if something is not right we come back and make it right.

Do you board ceilings and walls?

Yes — we board ceilings first then walls, with staggered joints and tight fastening, so the finishing goes on flat.

What affects the cost of drywall boarding in Bonnie Doon in Edmonton?

Area, board spec and access

The cost of boarding in Avonmore, Capilano, Cloverdale tracks the square footage, the board spec (fire-rated, moisture-resistant and soundproof board cost more than standard), and access — high ceilings and tight stairwells take more time. We price off the framing and a site look.

The right board in Avonmore, Capilano, Cloverdale

We put the correct board on every surface — moisture-resistant on exterior basement walls and wet areas, fire-rated on garage and suite separations — so your Avonmore, Capilano, Cloverdale project meets code before the tape goes on.

Bonnie Doon drywall in context

About Bonnie Doon

At the turn of the 20th century, the cities of Edmonton and Strathcona were engaged in an intense rivalry to attract growth.

What we see in Bonnie Doon

In Bonnie Doon the drywall work is plaster and lath repair, popcorn and stipple ceiling removal, careful patching into original surfaces. We confirm what your home actually needs on site, in writing, before anything starts.

Handling and storing board on site

It is fragile until it is up

Drywall damages at the edges, absorbs moisture from a damp Bonnie Doon slab and bows if stacked badly.

What we do

Stored flat and off the floor, kept dry, and not delivered weeks before it is needed. Damaged edges become damaged joints, and a sheet that has taken moisture never finishes properly.

Why Bonnie Doon homeowners and builders trust Emplastrum

Butt joints are the enemy

No taper to work with

Factory sheet edges are tapered so tape and compound sit below the surface. A butt joint — two cut ends meeting — has no taper, so the repair has to be built up and feathered wide.

How we reduce them

Longer sheets, planned layout, and running board the length of the wall rather than stacking short pieces. Every butt joint removed at hanging is a bulge the finisher does not have to disguise.

Boarding over existing walls in a renovation

Sometimes the right answer

Where Bonnie Doon plaster is failing across a wall, boarding over it can be faster and flatter than rebuilding the plaster.

What to watch

It costs wall thickness at every opening — window reveals, door casings and outlets all need extending. We point out those knock-on costs before you choose it, because they are what makes the decision.
