Basement Drywall for Secondary Suites

Secondary suites and basement apartments are increasingly popular throughout Vancouver Island — offering homeowners a way to generate rental income while providing much-needed housing options.

What a Well-Finished Suite Delivers:
Sound SeparationAcoustic insulation reduces noise transfer between floors.
Fire ProtectionFire-rated drywall on shared walls provides safety required by code.
Professional FinishHigh-quality finish maximizes rental appeal and durability.

Legal BC Secondary Criteria

Local municipalities have strict code boundaries for secondary suites. We focus on ensuring fire-stops and sound-decouplings pass municipal code inspections on the very first try.

Advanced Controls

Insulation, Soundproofing & Specialty Drywall

Basements have unique performance requirements. Our team addresses three of the most important factors: thermal insulation, sound control, and moisture management.

HEAT

Insulation Installation

Proper wall and ceiling insulation reduces heat loss, cuts energy costs, and creates a noticeably warmer environment.

QUIET

Soundproof Drywall Systems

Our soundproofing solutions include acoustic insulation and resilient channel systems to significantly reduce sound transmission.

DRY

Moisture-Resistant Drywall

In bathrooms, laundry rooms, and high-moisture zones, we install moisture-resistant drywall to protect against long-term damage.

SAFE

Fire-Rated Assemblies

We install fire-rated systems that meet project specifications and applicable building requirements across Vancouver Island.
