Legal suite drywall in Athlone, 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 Athlone we board and finish secondary suites to that spec so they pass. Athlone is an Northwest community with a mix of older homes and newer builds, so suite conversions are common here. We cover Athlone, Albany, Baranow, Baturyn and Northwest, 7 days a week.
