Commercial and industrial drywall contractor in Markham

What we build in Markham

Much of York Region's office space sits in Markham, along Highway 7 between Woodbine and Kennedy and in Markham Centre around Warden. The tech and head office tenants there turn over regularly, and every turnover is a drywall job: demising walls, private offices, boardrooms and the ceilings above them.

• Office and tenant fit-outs in the Highway 7 and Warden corridor and Markham Centre
• Medical, dental and professional suites, including rated corridors
• Retail and restaurant build-outs, from Markville to the plaza network along Kennedy and Steeles
• Industrial offices and demising walls in the 404 and Steeles employment lands
• Low rise and mid rise multi unit corridors, suites and amenity rooms
• T-bar and acoustic ceilings across all of the above

Markham Centre's newer towers and the low rise office campuses along Woodbine share one trait: the property manager sets the rules for hours, deliveries and protection, and we build those rules into the schedule before we bid rather than discovering them at mobilization.

The work is priced from your drawings and self performed by our own crews: steel stud framing, boarding, taping, finishing and ceilings under one contract.

Office turnover work, without disturbing the neighbours

A Markham office fit-out almost always happens on a floor that other tenants are still using. The drywall itself is straightforward. Doing it without a complaint from the suite next door is the actual job.

1. Confirm the building's work hours and what the property manager counts as noisy work
2. Match the existing ceiling grid, tile and wall finish so the new suite reads as part of the floor
3. Build demising walls to the underside of structure wherever the drawing or the lease requires it
4. Coordinate with the electrical and mechanical trades so board goes on once, after rough-in inspection
5. Protect the corridor, control dust and leave the common areas clean at the end of every shift

Medical and institutional suites

Markham's clinics, medical office buildings and the facilities around the hospital ask for a different standard: rated corridors, sound separation between exam rooms and consulting rooms, and in some cases infection control measures during construction.

• Rated corridors and separations built to the ULC listing on the drawings
• Sound rated partitions with acoustic batts, resilient channel and sealant where specified
• Bulkheads and drywall ceilings that carry lighting and mechanical without breaking the rating
• Containment, dust control and phasing where a clinic stays open

We document the rated work with photos before the second layer goes on. The details are on our fire-rated assemblies page.

Working with Markham general contractors

We work as a subcontractor to general contractors, developers and property managers. That means a proper bid off your drawing set, a certificate of insurance before we mobilize, and a crew we can actually staff for the dates on your schedule.

• Two million dollar commercial general liability, certificate on request
• WSIB coverage in good standing
• Non-union open shop
• Five years and more of commercial and industrial work across the GTA
• Framing, boarding, taping, finishing and ceilings self performed

Markham is directly east of our Richmond Hill base. Crews are on site for the start of the shift, and short return visits for deficiencies and punch list items do not have to be batched up.

Getting a number

Send the drawing set, the wall schedule and the reflected ceiling plan. We return a bid that lists every partition type by tag, the finish level per area and our exclusions in plain language. For the wider scope, see commercial drywall and office fit-outs.
