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

Converting Summerlea basements

The typical suite job takes an unfinished or aging basement to a fully code-compliant secondary suite. We handle the fire, sound and moisture drywall as one job.

On new Summerlea builds designed with a legal suite, we board and finish the suite to spec alongside the main home. See our basement drywall page.

Our Summerlea legal suite drywall process, step by step

Fire separation first

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