Legal suite drywall in York, 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 York we board and finish secondary suites to that spec so they pass. York is an established south Edmonton community of 1960s-70s homes where ceiling stipple, settling cracks and dated texture are common, so suite conversions are common here. We cover York, Balwin, Bannerman, Belmont and Northeast, 7 days a week.
