A standard basement in an Northeast Edmonton home typically takes one to two days to board. New construction or a big reno in Northeast Edmonton runs a longer schedule.

Do you hang the ceiling board first?

Yes, always. Ceiling board goes up before wall board on every job in Northeast Edmonton. The Northeast Edmonton wall board butts under the ceiling board and helps carry it. Reversing the sequence leaves Northeast Edmonton ceiling joints carrying their own weight unsupported — more likely to crack over time. We do not start Northeast Edmonton walls until the ceiling is done.
