Secondary suite drywall in Tweddle Place that passes inspection

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 Tweddle Place we board and finish secondary suites to that spec so they pass. Tweddle Place is an Mill Woods and Meadows community with a mix of older homes and newer builds, so suite conversions are common here. We cover Tweddle Place, Bisset, Crawford Plains, Daly Grove and Mill Woods and Meadows, 7 days a week.

Why the ceiling is the biggest part of the job

Where everything meets

The ceiling between an Tweddle Place suite and the unit above carries the fire separation, most of the sound transmission and all the mechanical that runs between floors.

Coordination

Ducting, plumbing and wiring all penetrate it, and each penetration has to be dealt with before the assembly closes. It is the part of a suite build that needs the most sequencing with other trades and the part most often rushed.

Sound between units, honestly

What you should expect

A properly built assembly makes normal speech between an Tweddle Place suite and the unit above unintelligible, and takes the edge off television.

What it will not do

It will not make it silent, and footstep noise from above is the hardest and most expensive to control. Tenants complain about footsteps more than voices, so this is worth spending on and worth being realistic about.

Sequencing around your inspections

Inspected before covered

Rated and sound assemblies in Tweddle Place are checked before the finish goes on. That sets the order of work, not the other way round.

How we plan it

We board and firestop to suit your inspection date rather than working ahead. If an inspection slips, we would rather pause than cover something the inspector needs to see.

Legal Suite Drywall Tweddle Place Edmonton: your questions answered

Do you work from my permit drawings?
Yes, and we would rather see them before quoting. The assemblies are a specification, not a preference, and the drawings decide the board, the layers and the joint treatment. If what is specified does not match what is on site, we tell you before boarding.
Is the full Tweddle Place suite — all the drywall — one job for you?
Yes — fire, sound, moisture board, boarding and finishing as one job in your Tweddle Place home, coordinated with your other trades.
Do you do legal suite drywall in Tweddle Place in Edmonton?
Yes — secondary-suite drywall in Tweddle Place is part of our regular work, and we book to your project. We also cover Bisset, Crawford Plains, Daly Grove and Mill Woods and Meadows.
Can the entire Tweddle Place suite drywall run as a single contract?
Yes — fire, sound, moisture board, boarding and finishing as one job in your Tweddle Place home, coordinated with your other trades.
How much sound separation will a suite actually get?
Enough that normal speech between the units is not intelligible, when the assembly on the drawings is built properly and the perimeters are sealed. It will not be silent, and footstep noise is the hardest part. We would rather set that expectation now.
Will you construct the required Tweddle Place fire and sound assemblies?
Yes — a Tweddle Place legal suite lives on its rated ceiling and dampened party walls, and we build both to spec.
