Can the same crew do the drywall after framing in Michaels Park?

Yes — one crew frames, boards, tapes and finishes, so nothing gets lost in a handoff between trades.

Can you add backing for a TV mount and shelves?

Yes, and tell us before the wall closes. Adding backing while it is open takes minutes; finding it missing afterwards means opening the wall or relying on anchors that eventually pull out. We ask what is going on the walls first.

Do you build bulkheads around ducting in Michaels Park?

Yes — bulkheads and soffits to box in ductwork, plumbing and lighting are part of nearly every basement frame.

Do you frame basement developments in Michaels Park?

Yes — wood-frame basement layouts ready for drywall are our most common framing job. We also cover Bisset, Crawford Plains, Daly Grove and Mill Woods and Meadows.

What is crowning a stud?

Sighting each stud and setting them all with the bow facing the same way so the wall plane is consistent. Studs set randomly give a wall that waves, and in an Michaels Park room with a window running along it that shows through the paint.

Can you take out this wall?

Only once we know it is not load-bearing, and that needs drawings or an engineer rather than an assumption. If it is bearing, the job becomes beams and posts — far better priced before demolition than discovered during it.

Steel studs against wood in a Michaels Park basement

Different tools for different jobs

Steel is straight, will not warp, does not burn and does not rot, which suits a basement or a shop. Wood takes fasteners anywhere and is easier for backing and heavy fixings.

How we choose

Often a mix — steel for the long partition runs where straightness matters, wood where cabinets and heavy items are going. We will say which we would use where and why.

Michaels Park drywall in context

About Michaels Park

Michaels Park was named in honour of John Michaels who was involved in community service for 50 years and was best known for his promotion of aviation and the north country.

What we see in Michaels Park

In Michaels Park the drywall work is plaster and lath repair, popcorn and stipple ceiling removal, careful patching into original surfaces. We confirm what your home actually needs on site, in writing, before anything starts.

Backing for everything that gets fixed later

Decide before it closes

Grab bars, TV mounts, floating shelves, cabinets, handrails and towel rails all need something solid behind the board.

The cheap moment

Adding backing while the Michaels Park wall is open takes minutes. Finding it missing after the wall is finished means opening it or relying on hollow-wall anchors that eventually pull out. We ask what is going on the walls before we close them.

Common framing situations in Michaels Park in Edmonton

Basement framing against foundation walls in Edmonton

Hold it off the concrete

Framing tight against an Michaels Park foundation wall puts wood and insulation against a cold, sometimes damp surface with no way to dry.

How it is done

The wall is held off, or a rigid layer goes on the concrete first. It costs an inch or two of floor space and it is the difference between a basement that stays dry and one that smells musty in year two.

Bulkheads, and why they are never straight by accident

Boxing what has to stay

Michaels Park basements are full of ducts, beams and plumbing that cannot move. Bulkheads box them, and each one adds corners.

Getting them right

A bulkhead framed slightly out of square is obvious once it is boarded, because the eye follows its long lines. They take longer than their size suggests and they are worth the extra care.
