Legal suite drywall in Belle Rive, 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 Belle Rive we board and finish secondary suites to that spec so they pass. Belle Rive 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 Belle Rive, Albany, Athlone, Baranow and Northwest, 7 days a week.

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. A Belle Rive suite that satisfies the inspector and feels like home — that is the outcome.
