Do you cover all of Edmonton for drywall installation?

Yes — we cover all four Edmonton quadrants, Edmonton, Aspen Gardens, Bearspaw, Blue Quill, Edmonton and surrounding communities, 7 days a week. The only exception is downtown high-rise towers, which require working-at-heights permits and building-management access we do not carry.

Do you hang the ceiling board before the walls?

Yes, always. Ceiling board goes up first on every Edmonton installation job. Wall board butts up under the ceiling board and helps carry it. Reversing the sequence leaves ceiling joints unsupported — they crack sooner and perform worse under tape.

Does Falconer Heights taping follow straight after boarding?

Yes — we hang board with seams on framing, correct screw pattern and plumb walls, so a taper (or we ourselves) can start the very next day in Falconer Heights.

Do you board for legal suites in Falconer Heights?

Yes, and we know the spec. A legal secondary suite in Falconer Heights requires 5/8” Type X fire-rated board on the ceiling separating the suite from the floor above, and STC soundproof board on the party walls. Moisture-resistant in all wet areas. That spec is how Falconer Heights suites board and pass inspection.

Do you board legal suites to spec?

Yes — 5/8-inch Type X fire-rated board on suite ceilings and soundproof board on party walls, to the City of Edmonton suite spec.

Drywall board types for Falconer Heights homes

Standard board for most walls

Standard 1/2-inch drywall is correct for most interior walls and ceilings in Falconer Heights away from moisture exposure.

Moisture-resistant, fire-rated and soundproof where the spec matters

Exterior basement walls and wet areas need moisture-resistant board; legal suite ceilings need fire-rated board; party walls need soundproof board. We specify the right product for every Falconer Heights surface before we pull the first sheet.

Gapping at the floor and around openings

Board should not touch

A small gap at the slab or subfloor keeps board from wicking moisture and gives the building room to move.

Around windows and doors

Joints are kept away from the corners of openings, because a joint that lines up with a corner is exactly where an Falconer Heights house concentrates movement and where cracks appear first. It costs an offcut and saves a callback.

Board layout is decided before the first sheet

Where the joints land

On an Falconer Heights wall, running board horizontally puts one long joint at a comfortable working height instead of several vertical ones, and it usually means fewer joints overall.

Why it is planned

Joint placement decides how much finishing the room needs and where the visible risk sits. Sheets hung wherever they happen to reach is the difference between a wall that finishes easily and one that fights you.
