Legal suite drywall in Capilano, 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 Capilano we board and finish secondary suites to that spec so they pass. Capilano is this established Southeast community where reno, repair and ceiling drywall are common, so suite conversions are common here. We cover Capilano, Avonmore, Bonnie Doon, Cloverdale and Southeast, 7 days a week.

Fire, sound and moisture in a Capilano suite

Fire and sound separation

A Capilano legal suite needs a fire-rated ceiling and sound-dampened separation so it is safe and liveable. We build both into the Capilano drywall.

Moisture and finish

Bathrooms and wet areas get moisture-resistant board, and the whole suite finishes flat and paint-ready. See our Fire-Rated Drywall Edmonton and Soundproofing Edmonton pages for the Capilano assemblies involved.

Our Capilano legal suite drywall process, step by step

Fire separation first

In Capilano 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. A Capilano suite that satisfies the inspector and feels like home — that is the outcome.
