Drywall board types for Edmonton homes

Standard 1/2” drywall — the right choice for most Edmonton walls

Standard 1/2” drywall is correct for interior walls and ceilings in Edmonton homes away from moisture exposure. It is the most common board we install and finishes the same as the rest of the house. Most interior walls and ceilings in Edmonton homes use standard board.

Moisture-resistant, fire-rated and soundproof — where the spec matters

Exterior basement walls need moisture-resistant board even with a vapour barrier. Bathroom and laundry walls need moisture-resistant. Legal suite ceilings require 5/8” Type X fire-rated. STC soundproof board goes on West Henday Edmonton suite party walls. We specify the right product for each surface before we pull the first sheet.

What affects the cost of drywall installation in Edmonton 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. Moisture-resistant board on all West Henday Edmonton bathroom and laundry walls. 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. In West Henday Edmonton, moisture-free interior walls use standard 1/2” board. We map every surface at the on-site quote and specify the right product — so there are no surprises when the inspector comes.

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 West Henday 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.

The number we quote is the number you pay

Priced on site, then fixed

An install price that moves halfway through is the most common complaint we hear about the trade. We quote West Henday Edmonton homeowners a fixed price at the on-site quote and the number does not change.

The standard we hang to, across West Henday Edmonton and Breckenridge Greens, Edgemont, Glastonbury, Granville, Hawks Ridge, Kinglet Gardens

Every joint taped to Level 4, every texture matched precisely, and the walls left paint-ready rather than left for the painter to make good.

Yes — West Henday Edmonton is part of our regular service area, and we are usually booked within the week. We also cover Breckenridge Greens, Edgemont, Glastonbury, Granville, Hawks Ridge, Kinglet Gardens and West Henday Edmonton.
Do you board for legal suites in West Henday Edmonton?
Yes, and we know the spec.

Do you stand behind your installation work in West Henday Edmonton?
Yes. Before leaving West Henday Edmonton, 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 West Henday Edmonton. In West Henday Edmonton, the wall board tucks under the ceiling board to support it. Out of order, West Henday Edmonton ceiling joints carry their own weight and crack sooner. In West Henday Edmonton, walls wait until the ceiling is boarded.
Do you hang the ceiling board before the walls?
Yes, always. Ceiling board goes up first on every Edmonton installation job. Wall board butts up under the ceiling board and helps carry it. Reversing the sequence leaves ceiling joints unsupported — they crack sooner and perform worse under tape.
How do you handle texture matching after drywall installation work in West Henday Edmonton?
Texture matching is part of every repair and patch job we do in West Henday Edmonton. Whether the surrounding surface is knockdown, smooth or an older pattern, we match it so the repair is not visible under paint.
