Legal suite drywall in Strathcona, 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 Strathcona we board and finish secondary suites to that spec so they pass. Strathcona is an Scona community with a mix of older homes and newer builds, so suite conversions are common here. We cover Strathcona, Allendale, Argyll, Belgravia and Scona, 7 days a week.

Our Strathcona legal suite drywall process, step by step

Fire separation first

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

Strathcona drywall in context

About Strathcona

Strathcona was named for Lord Strathcona, Hudson Bay Company Governor (1889-1914) and the man chosen to drive the "last spike" of the CPR transcontinental railway.

What we see in Strathcona

In Strathcona the drywall work is plaster and lath repair, popcorn and stipple ceiling removal, careful patching into original surfaces. We confirm what your home actually needs on site, in writing, before anything starts.

Fire, sound and moisture in a Strathcona suite

Fire and sound separation

A Strathcona legal suite needs a fire-rated ceiling and sound-dampened separation so it is safe and liveable. The Strathcona drywall carries both.

Moisture protection and finishing

Wet areas take moisture-resistant board and the full suite leaves flat and paint-ready. For Strathcona assembly detail, see Fire-Rated Drywall Edmonton and Soundproofing Edmonton.
