New construction drywall in Mactaggart, boarded and finished right

The drywall makes or breaks a new Mactaggart build — get the boarding square, the tape tight and the finish flat and everything after goes smoothly. In Mactaggart we board, tape, mud and finish new construction to a smooth Level 4 or 5, with fire-rated, moisture-resistant and soundproof board wherever the plan calls for it. Mactaggart is one of Whitemud's newer communities, where fresh installation and first-year settling work are common, so new-construction work here is steady.

What affects the cost of new construction drywall in Mactaggart?

Size, board spec and finish level

The cost in Mactaggart depends on the square footage, the board spec (fire-rated, moisture-resistant and soundproof board cost more than standard), and the finish level — a Level 5 is more skim work than a Level 4. We price off the plans and a site look.

Spec done right in Mactaggart

We put the right board where the plan and code call for it — fire-rated on garage and suite separations, moisture-resistant in wet areas — so your Mactaggart build passes inspection the first time.
