Fire-rated drywall in Crystal Shores, installed to code

Fire-rated drywall is not optional where the code calls for it — garage-to-house separations, basement suites and party walls in a Crystal Shores home all need Type X board in a rated assembly to pass inspection and keep the home safe. In Crystal Shores we install fire-rated drywall to code and finish it clean. Crystal Shores is Okotoks’s only lakeside community, and the premium finishes homeowners want on these lake-access Crystal Shores properties mean full Level 5 skim work and repairs made truly invisible are common requests in Crystal Shores. We cover Crystal Shores and all of Okotoks, 7 days a week.

What affects the cost of fire-rated drywall in Crystal Shores?

Area and assembly in Crystal Shores

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

Passing inspection in Crystal Shores

The common rated jobs in Crystal Shores 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 in Crystal Shores so your project passes the first time. In Crystal Shores we see everything from original finishes to recent renovations on the same block.
