Fire-rated drywall in Heartland, installed to code

In Heartland the code decides: garage separations, basement suites and party walls must carry Type X board in a rated assembly to pass inspection and protect the home. In Heartland we install fire-rated drywall to code and finish it clean. Heartland is a new Cochrane community where fresh installation and first-year settling work are common, so fire-rated work here is common on garages and suites. We cover Heartland and all of Cochrane, 7 days a week.

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

Area and assembly

The cost in Heartland depends on the area and the rated assembly required — a single-layer garage ceiling is different from a two-layer party wall. Expect Type X to price above regular board; the Heartland assembly build follows the rating. We price off the spec and a site look.

Passing inspection in Heartland

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 Heartland project passes the first time. In Heartland we see everything from original finishes to recent renovations on the same block.

Our Heartland fire-rated drywall process, step by step

Right board, right build-up

In Heartland 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. Code-compliant, inspection-ready and visually finished — the Heartland outcome.

Fire-rated garages, suites and party walls in Heartland

Garage firewalls

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

Party walls and legal suites

Both are regular calls across Heartland. We build the rated separations these require. See our legal suite drywall page. Heartland spans a range of build eras, so what is behind the wall differs street to street.
