Fire-rated drywall in Midtown, installed to code

Fire-rated drywall is not optional where Midtown 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 Midtown we install fire-rated drywall to code and finish it clean. Midtown is an older Airdrie community where settling cracks, aging texture and the occasional plaster repair come up, so fire-rated work here is common on garages and suites. We cover Midtown and all of Airdrie, 7 days a week.

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

Area and assembly

The cost in Midtown 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 Midtown rating dictates the build-up. We price off the spec and a site look.

Passing inspection in Midtown

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 Midtown project passes the first time.

Our Midtown fire-rated drywall process, step by step

Right board, right build-up

In Midtown 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 Midtown separation that also looks finished. Midtown spans a range of build eras, so what is behind the wall differs street to street.

Fire-rated garages, suites and party walls in Midtown

Garage firewalls

The most common fire-rated job in Midtown 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 Midtown jobs. We build the rated separations these require. See our legal suite drywall page. Housing in Midtown is mixed, which is why we look before we quote rather than after.

Common fire-rated situations in Midtown

In Midtown, midtown Airdrie sees a mix of renovation-driven drywall work and repair calls, from post-renovation patching after plumbing or electrical work to full room re-boards when older walls need replacing rather than repairing. Free on-site quote, one fixed price, and work that holds up after.
