Fire-rated drywall in Cochrane, installed to code

Fire-rated drywall in Cochrane, 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 Cochrane we install fire-rated drywall to code and finish it clean. Cochrane is a growing community where reno, repair and finishing drywall are common, so fire-rated work here is common on garages and suites. We cover all of Cochrane, 7 days a week.

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

Area and assembly

The cost in Cochrane 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 Cochrane

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 Cochrane project passes the first time.

Our Cochrane fire-rated drywall process, step by step

Right board, right build-up

In Cochrane 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 Cochrane

Garage firewalls

The most common fire-rated job in Cochrane 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 here. We build the rated separations these require. See our legal suite drywall page.

Common fire-rated situations in Cochrane

Finished garages and new builds

Fire-rated work here is common when garages are finished and on new builds and additions where the separations are part of the spec.

Suite conversions

When a Cochrane basement is converted to a legal suite, the fire separation between the suite and the main floor is a code requirement we handle as part of the drywall.
