Boarding and finishing a new La Perle build with one crew

On a new build in La Perle the drywall stage is where the schedule is either held or lost. Board goes on after the mechanical and insulation inspections and before the finishing trades, so slipping it moves everyone behind you. We quote a sequence, not just a price, and we tell you what has to be complete before we can start.

Site protection and cleanup on a new build

Not an empty shell for long

By the time we are boarding, an La Perle build often has windows, some flooring substrate and finished mechanical in place.

What we protect

Floors, window frames, stair treads and any installed fixtures. Drywall debris and compound left to dry on a subfloor is a cost transferred to the flooring trade, and builders remember which crews do that.

La Perle drywall in context

About La Perle

Located in west Edmonton, just south of Stony Plain Road, La Perle is named for an early resident whose family operated a general store here in the early part of the last century.

What we see in La Perle

In La Perle the drywall work is popcorn and stipple ceiling removal, settling+truss-uplift cracks, nail pops, Poly-B repipe patching repipe patching. We confirm what your home actually needs on site, in writing, before anything starts.

Ceilings first, then walls

Standard for a reason

Ceiling board goes up first so the wall sheets support its edges. Reversing it leaves the ceiling perimeter unsupported and produces cracking at the wall junction.

On a new La Perle build

It also lets the crew work overhead while the floor is clear, which is faster and safer than working around stacked wall board.

What has to be complete before we start

The gate list

Framing signed off, mechanical and electrical rough-in inspected, insulation and vapour barrier in and passed, and the building closed in and able to hold temperature.

Why we insist

Boarding over an uninspected rough-in means opening a finished wall. On an La Perle build that is days lost and a trade relationship damaged, so we would rather hold a start date than take one that is not ready.

Common new construction situations in La Perle

In La Perle, la Perle sits in Edmonton's West Edmonton district. Located in west Edmonton, just south of Stony Plain Road, La Perle is named for an early resident whose family operated a general store here in the early part of the last century. Across roughly 1,955 homes here, the drywall work is popcorn and stipple ceiling removal, settling+truss-uplift cracks, nail pops, Poly-B repipe patching repipe patching. We cover La Perle and the surrounding West Edmonton district, 7 days a week. One fixed price after an honest on-site look, and the job done right the first time.

Screw patterns and what an inspector checks

Spacing is specified

Fastener spacing on ceilings and walls is set by the assembly, and it is checked. Under-screwing shows up later as nail pops and cracked joints.

Depth matters too

A screw driven through the paper face has lost its grip and becomes a defect. Set correctly it dimples the surface without breaking it. It is unglamorous and it is most of what a good hanging crew is being paid for.

Handing over to the painter

What paint-ready actually means

Sanded, dust removed, edges cut clean, and any defect the painter would otherwise find dealt with first.

The walkthrough

We would rather walk an La Perle house with the painter before they start than receive a list afterwards. Most disputes between the two trades are about surfaces neither inspected together, and ten minutes at handover prevents them.
