McCauley drywall in context

About McCauley

McCauley, named in honour of Edmonton's first mayor (the colourful Matthew McCauley) developed primarily after 1908 when a street car line was started.

Our McCauley drywall boarding process, step by step

Ceilings first, then walls

Boarding in McCauley is done in the right order — ceilings first so the wall sheets support the ceiling edges — with sheets hung tight to the framing and joints staggered so they do not line up and crack.

Square, tight and tape-ready

We cut clean around boxes and openings, keep gaps minimal for the taper, and check the board is flat and fastened properly before we leave. Well-hung board speeds the McCauley taping stage and flattens the final wall.
