Fire-rated drywall in Bow Ridge, installed to code

Fire-rated drywall is not optional where the code calls for it — garage-to-house separations, basement suites and party walls all need Type X board in a rated assembly to pass inspection and keep a home safe. In Bow Ridge we install fire-rated drywall to code and finish it clean. Bow Ridge is an established Cochrane community where reno and ceiling drywall are typical, so fire-rated work here is common on garages and suites. We cover Bow Ridge and all of Cochrane, 7 days a week.

What affects the cost of fire-rated drywall in Bow Ridge?

Area and assembly

The cost in Bow Ridge depends on the area and the rated assembly required — a single-layer garage ceiling is different from a two-layer party wall. Type X board costs more than standard, and the rating dictates the build-up. We price off the spec and a site look.

Passing inspection in Bow Ridge

Because Bow Ridge is an established Cochrane community where reno and ceiling drywall are typical, 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 Bow Ridge project passes the first time.

Our Bow Ridge fire-rated drywall process, step by step

Right board, right build-up

In Bow Ridge 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. You get an inspection-ready, code-compliant separation that also looks finished.

Fire-rated garages, suites and party walls in Bow Ridge

Garage firewalls

The most common fire-rated job in Bow Ridge is the garage-to-house separation — Type X board on the common wall and ceiling. We install and finish it to code.
