Fire-rated drywall in Millrise, installed to code

No shortcuts on Millrise fire-rating — separations, suites and party walls need code Type X rated assemblies to clear inspection and keep people safe. In Millrise we install fire-rated drywall to code and finish it clean. Millrise is a mature SW Calgary community where reno and ceiling drywall are typical, so fire-rated work here is common on garages and suites. We cover Millrise, Aspen Woods, West Springs, Cougar Ridge and every Calgary quadrant, 7 days a week.

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

Area and assembly

The cost in Millrise depends on the area and the rated assembly required — a single-layer garage ceiling is different from a two-layer party wall. The Millrise rating drives the build-up, and Type X board carries a premium over standard. We price off the spec and a site look.

Passing inspection in Millrise

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 Millrise project passes the first time. Where Millrise still has stipple, we check how many coats are on it before deciding to match or remove.

Our Millrise fire-rated drywall process, step by step

Right board, right build-up

In Millrise 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. A Millrise separation the inspector approves and the eye approves too.

Fire-rated garages, suites and party walls in Millrise

Garage firewalls

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

Legal suites and shared walls

Frequent work in Millrise homes and multi-unit buildings. We build the rated separations these require. See our legal suite drywall page. Where Millrise still has stipple, we check how many coats are on it before deciding to match or remove.

Common fire-rated situations in Millrise

In Millrise, millrise's 1990s-era stipple ceilings are a frequent removal request, and because these homes are old enough now for real seasonal movement, we routinely pair that with settling-crack and nail-pop repair in the same rooms. We handle all of it the same careful way — on-site quote, fixed price, done right.
