Fire-rated drywall in Greystone, installed to code

Where code requires it in Greystone, fire-rated board is mandatory: garage-to-house separations, suites and party walls take Type X in a rated assembly — for inspection and for safety. In Greystone we install fire-rated drywall to code and finish it clean. Greystone is a growing Cochrane community where settling cracks and finishing work are common, so fire-rated work here is common on garages and suites. We cover Greystone and all of Cochrane, 7 days a week.

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

Area and assembly

The cost in Greystone depends on the area and the rated assembly required — a single-layer garage ceiling is different from a two-layer party wall. In Greystone, the required rating sets the assembly build-up — and Type X runs above standard board on cost. We price off the spec and a site look.

Passing inspection in Greystone

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 Greystone project passes the first time. Basement development is common in Greystone, and a basement behaves differently from the rest of the house — cooler, damper, and less forgiving of a rushed finish.

Our Greystone fire-rated drywall process, step by step

Right board, right build-up

In Greystone 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. The Greystone deliverable: a separation that passes inspection, meets code and looks complete.
