Drywall installation hung straight and screwed off right

Good drywall installation is what makes a good North Central Edmonton finish possible — seams on framing, the right screw pattern, board plumb before a single coat of mud goes on. In North Central Edmonton we board new builds, basements and renovations the way a finishing specialist wants it boarded. North Central Edmonton is an older North Central Edmonton community where settling cracks, aging texture and the occasional plaster repair come up, so the installation work here is usually settling cracks, aging stipple and the odd plaster repair. We cover North Central Edmonton, Abbottsfield, Alberta Avenue, Beacon Heights, Bellevue, Bergman, Beverly Heights and North Central Edmonton, 7 days a week.

Basement development boarding in Edmonton — new builds and existing homes

The most common boarding call across Edmonton is full basement development. In newer Edmonton communities — Abbottsfield, Alberta Avenue, Beacon Heights, Bellevue, Bergman, Beverly Heights — the builder framed the basement and the homeowner is ready to develop it. We board ceiling first, then the walls, with moisture-resistant on every exterior foundation wall. In older Edmonton communities — Abbottsfield, Alberta Avenue, Beacon Heights, Bellevue, Bergman, Beverly Heights — the call is often a legal suite conversion with fire-rated and soundproof board to spec.

Renovation boarding and room additions in established Edmonton communities

Established Edmonton homeowners renovating their main floors call us for boarding after walls come down. Kitchen open-ups, room additions, bathroom relocations — all require new board hung to match the adjacent surfaces. We assess the framing, select the right board thickness, hang level and leave the newly boarded walls ready for taping. No visible seam between old and new.

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 North Central 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.
