Our Horse Hill Edmonton drywall installation process, step by step

Ceiling board first, always

Every boarding job in Horse Hill Edmonton starts with the ceiling, because the wall board butts up under it and helps carry it. In Horse Hill Edmonton, reversing the order under-supports the joints.

Wall board and seams

Walls go up with correct screws and framed seams. In Horse Hill Edmonton, completed boarding hands straight to taping with nothing to fix.

Ceilings first, then walls

The order is not arbitrary

Ceiling board goes up first so the wall sheets push up underneath and support its edges.

What it prevents

Doing it the other way leaves the ceiling perimeter unsupported, and in an Horse Hill Edmonton room that is where the cracking starts. It also gives a tighter joint at the wall-ceiling line, which is the joint people look at most.

Drywall board types for Horse Hill Edmonton homes

Standard board for most walls

Standard 1/2-inch drywall is correct for most interior walls and ceilings in Horse Hill Edmonton 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 Horse Hill Edmonton surface before we pull the first sheet.

What affects the cost of drywall installation in Edmonton in Edmonton?

Square footage, board type and ceiling complexity

The cost of drywall installation in Edmonton comes down to four things: total square footage of wall and ceiling, board type (standard, moisture-resistant, fire-rated and soundproof are priced differently), ceiling complexity (flat ceilings vs. vaulted, cathedral, bulkheads and soffits), and whether the job is a new development or a renovation around existing trades and fixtures. We measure on site and give you a fixed price before we start.

Board spec in Edmonton — right product on every surface

Exterior foundation walls need moisture-resistant board. Moisture-resistant board on all Horse Hill Edmonton bathroom and laundry walls. Legal suite ceilings need 5/8” Type X fire-rated board. Party walls between a suite and the main living area need STC soundproof board. In Horse Hill Edmonton, moisture-free interior walls use standard 1/2” board. We map every surface at the on-site quote and specify the right product — so there are no surprises when the inspector comes.
