Drywall is all the Same, different Stores have different % mark-up and different Distribution costs.
I thought there wasnt either but one contractor we got an estimate from told me there was drywall out there that was made in china and contained toxins that could be harmful, we never went with him but i was just curious to know. Thanks

there are 2 main manufacturers of drywall in canada, for the life of me I can't remember them
one is a bit more flexible than the other
I've done my fair share of drywall to know what I'm talking about.
But in essence they both wall up a frame and drywall mudd adheres to it. Most of the properties are the same.
One may contain a bit more fibres and more soap (creates air bubbles) for a lighter weight and more flexibility. So these sheets will be a dollar or 2 more per sheet.
Been a while since I've used my tools, so I assume not much has changed since.

There are differences in thickness: 1/2" (standard walls) vs 5/8" (ceilings) and for different application: regular walls vs bathroom walls.

OP All you need to worry about is buying it and throwing it up.
I only ever worked in Commercial so i am not sure about the requirements for fire rating your basement, but i think all you need is half inch (i would check into that before buying)
Domtar would be one of them.Originally posted by barmanjay

I found a guy that did it for $0.27sq/ft or $8.64 a sheet delivered with sheet rock drywall I think.
