Can you board only and leave the finishing to us?

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 Terra Losa home.

Will you hang the board in Terra Losa 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 Terra Losa home.

Do you stand behind your boarding in Terra Losa?

Yes. We check the board is flat and fastened before we leave your Aldergrove, Belmead, Callingwood North 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.

Sheet length and when to pay for 12-footers

Fewer joints, better wall

A 12-foot sheet across a long Terra Losa hallway removes joints that a 8-footers would create. It costs slightly more and handles harder.

Where it matters

Long walls, great rooms, and anywhere with raking light. In a small bedroom the difference is invisible and not worth the handling. We order per room rather than one size for the house.

Boarding new builds, basements and renos in Terra Losa

New construction and additions

In Terra Losa we board complete new builds and additions, coordinating with the trades so the project keeps moving.

Basements and renovations

Basement development and reno boarding are common here. We board the new layout square and to spec, ready for tape. See our basement drywall and new construction pages.

Our Terra Losa drywall boarding process in Edmonton, step by step

Ceilings first, then walls

Boarding in Terra Losa 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. Good boarding makes the finishing faster and the final wall flatter.

Ceilings first, always

Order is structural

Ceiling board goes up before wall board so the wall sheets support the ceiling perimeter. Reversed, the ceiling edge is unsupported and cracks along the wall junction.

Also practical

Working overhead with a clear floor is faster and safer than working around stacked wall sheets, which matters on a whole-house Terra Losa job.
