Legal suite drywall in Albany, built to the suite spec

A legal secondary suite has to meet the City of Edmonton spec to pass inspection — fire-rated separation between the suite and the main floor, sound-dampened party walls and moisture-resistant board where it is needed. In Albany we board and finish secondary suites to that spec so they pass. Albany is an established south Edmonton community of 1960s-70s homes where ceiling stipple, settling cracks and dated texture are common, so suite conversions are common here. We cover Albany, Athlone, Baranow, Baturyn and Northwest, 7 days a week.

Our Albany legal suite drywall process, step by step

Fire separation first

In Albany the key element is the fire-rated separation between the suite and the main floor — we install the required Type X ceiling assembly to spec.

Sound, moisture and finish

We add sound-dampening to the party walls so the suite and main floor are not living in each other's noise, moisture-resistant board in the bathroom and wet areas, then tape and finish everything flat. The finished Albany suite clears inspection and feels genuinely liveable.

What affects the cost of legal suite drywall in Albany?

Suite size and required assemblies

The cost in Albany depends on the suite size and the rated assemblies — the fire separation, sound walls and moisture-resistant areas all add to a plain basement finish. We price off the suite layout and the spec.

Built to pass in Albany

Suite conversions are common here, and the drywall is a big part of passing inspection. We build the fire and sound assemblies to the City of Edmonton suite spec so your Albany suite passes.

Common legal suite situations in Albany

Basement conversions

Most Albany suite drywall is a basement conversion — turning an unfinished or dated basement into a code-compliant secondary suite. We handle the fire, sound and moisture drywall as one job.

New builds with suites

On new Albany builds designed with a legal suite, we board and finish the suite to spec alongside the main home. See our basement drywall page.
