Fire-rated drywall in Bel Aire, installed to code

No shortcuts on Bel Aire fire-rating — separations, suites and party walls need code Type X rated assemblies to clear inspection and keep people safe. In Bel Aire we install fire-rated drywall to code and finish it clean. Bel Aire is one of SW Calgary's newer communities, where fresh installation and first-year settling work are common, so fire-rated work here is common on garages and suites.

What affects the cost of fire-rated drywall in Bel Aire?

Area and assembly

The cost in Bel Aire depends on the area and the rated assembly required — a single-layer garage ceiling is different from a two-layer party wall. The Bel Aire rating drives the build-up, and Type X board carries a premium over standard. We price off the spec and a site look.

Passing inspection in Bel Aire

The common rated jobs here are garages and suites. The rating only holds if the assembly is built and sealed exactly to spec, so we install it to code and seal penetrations properly so your Bel Aire project passes the first time. Housing in Bel-Aire is mixed, which is why we look before we quote rather than after.

Right board, right build-up

In Bel Aire we confirm the required rating, then install the correct Type X board in the right layers — the assembly, not just the board, is what carries the rating.

Seal and finish

Penetrations and edges are where a rated assembly fails, so we firestop and seal them, then tape and finish the board clean. A Bel Aire separation the inspector approves and the eye approves too. Housing in Bel-Aire is mixed, which is why we look before we quote rather than after.
