Our drywall installation process in Rosenthal in Edmonton, step by step

Ceiling board first — always — in Rosenthal homes

Every boarding job in Rosenthal starts with the ceiling. In Rosenthal we board ceilings first — the wall board tucks under and helps carry the ceiling. Skip the Rosenthal order and the ceiling joints go unsupported and crack. In Rosenthal, walls wait until the ceiling is boarded. It is a small thing that makes a significant difference in long-term performance.

Wall boarding, screw pattern and joint placement in Rosenthal

Wall board goes up with the correct screw pattern — every 12 inches on the field, every 8 inches at the perimeter. In Rosenthal, every seam lands on framing, never mid-bay. In Rosenthal, every inside and outside corner is square and clean. In Rosenthal, board stops clean at window and door frames. When the boarding is done in an Rosenthal home, every surface is at the right plane and the taping crew can go straight to work.

Our Edmonton drywall installation process in Edmonton, step by step

Ceiling board first — always

Every boarding job in Edmonton starts with the ceiling. Ceiling board goes up before the walls because the wall board butts up under the ceiling board and helps carry it. Reversing the sequence leaves ceiling joints carrying their own weight unsupported — they perform worse under the tape and are more likely to crack over time. No Rosenthal wall board goes up before the ceiling is complete.

Wall boarding — screw pattern, joint placement and board selection

Clean, square corners — inside and out — on Rosenthal jobs. We hold Rosenthal board to the window and door frames, no overrun. When the boarding is complete, every surface is at the right plane, the taping crew can start immediately and there is no rework to do before they begin.

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.
