Legal suite drywall in Gariepy, 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 Gariepy we board and finish secondary suites to that spec so they pass. Gariepy is an West Edmonton community with a mix of older homes and newer builds, so suite conversions are common here. We cover Gariepy, Aldergrove, Belmead, Callingwood North and West Edmonton, 7 days a week.

Fire and sound separation

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 Gariepy assemblies involved.

Our Gariepy legal suite drywall process, step by step

Fire separation first

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