Fire-rated drywall in Castleridge, installed to code

Fire-rated drywall is not optional where Castleridge code calls for it — garage separations, basement suites and party walls all need Type X in a rated assembly to pass inspection and keep the home safe. In Castleridge we install fire-rated drywall to code and finish it clean. Castleridge is an established SW Calgary community where reno, repair and ceiling drywall are common, so fire-rated work here is common on garages and suites. We cover Castleridge, Aspen Woods, West Springs, Cougar Ridge and every Calgary quadrant, 7 days a week.

Fire-Rated Drywall Castleridge

What affects the cost of fire-rated drywall in Castleridge?

Area and assembly

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

Passing inspection in Castleridge

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 Castleridge project passes the first time.

Our Castleridge fire-rated drywall process, step by step

Right board, right build-up

In Castleridge 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 Castleridge separation that also looks finished.

Fire-rated garages, suites and party walls in Castleridge

Garage firewalls

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

Legal suites and party walls

Basement legal suites and multi-unit party walls are frequent Castleridge jobs. We build the rated separations these require. See our legal suite drywall page.

Common fire-rated situations in Castleridge

In Castleridge the typical work is taking down dated textured ceilings, repairing settling cracks and nail pops, and closing up walls neatly after Poly-B repipes, all texture-matched so the finish looks untouched. That is the standard on every job here, big or small — on-site quote, fixed price.
