Legal suite drywall in Kirkness, 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 Kirkness we board and finish secondary suites to that spec so they pass. Kirkness is one of Northeast's newer communities, where fresh installation and first-year settling work are common, so suite conversions are common here. We cover Kirkness, Balwin, Bannerman, Belmont and Northeast, 7 days a week.
