Do you cover all of Edmonton for drywall installation?

Yes — we cover all four Edmonton quadrants, Edmonton, Bisset, Crawford Plains, Daly Grove, 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.

How long does drywall installation take in a Satoo home?

A standard basement in a Satoo home typically takes one to two days to board. New construction or a big reno in Satoo runs a longer schedule. The Satoo timeline you get at the quote is realistic, not optimistic. In Satoo, finishing usually begins the day after boarding wraps.

Do you stand behind your installation work in Satoo?

Yes. Before leaving Satoo, we walk the boarding together and fix anything not right.

Do you hang the ceiling board first?

Yes, always. Ceiling board goes up before wall board on every job in Satoo. In Satoo, the wall board tucks under the ceiling board to support it. Out of order, Satoo ceiling joints carry their own weight and crack sooner. In Satoo, walls wait until the ceiling is boarded.

What board do you use for exterior basement walls in Satoo?

Moisture-resistant board on all Satoo exterior foundation walls and around plumbing and laundry. Standard 1/2” board for Satoo interior walls away from moisture. For Satoo legal suites: 5/8” Type X fire-rated on the ceiling and soundproof board on party walls. We specify the right product for each Satoo surface at the on-site quote.

Do you board for legal suites in Satoo?

Yes, and we know the spec. A legal secondary suite in Satoo 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. The Satoo suite is boarded to that spec, and inspection follows.

What affects the cost of drywall installation 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. Satoo wet rooms — bath and laundry — get moisture board throughout. 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. Standard 1/2” suits Satoo interior walls clear of moisture. We map every surface at the on-site quote and specify the right product — so there are no surprises when the inspector comes.

Standard board for most walls

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

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 Satoo surface before we pull the first sheet.

Drywall Installation work we do in Satoo

Renovation boarding in 1960s and 1970s Satoo homes

The most common drywall installation call from Satoo is renovation work. Walls come down for a kitchen open-up, a bathroom move or a structural change, and new board goes up on the exposed framing. Satoo homes from this era often have original plaster or early drywall that does not match modern board thickness — we assess the framing and select the right board thickness so the surface is consistent.

Bathroom and wet-area boarding in Satoo — moisture-resistant board

Bathroom renovations in Satoo homes require moisture-resistant board behind tile and around any plumbing chase. We hang moisture-resistant board properly so the tile substrate is solid and the installation holds for the long term.
