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. Summerside 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 Summerside 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.

Drywall Installation work we do in Summerside

Renovation boarding in 1960s and 1970s Summerside homes

The most common drywall installation call from Summerside 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. Summerside 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 Summerside — moisture-resistant board

Bathroom renovations in Summerside 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.
