Fire-rated drywall in Oakridge, installed to code

Fire-rated drywall in Oakridge, installed to code

Where code requires it in Oakridge, 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 Oakridge we install fire-rated drywall to code and finish it clean. Oakridge is an established SW Calgary community of 1970s homes with stipple ceilings and crack repair common, so fire-rated work here is common on garages and suites. We cover Oakridge, Aspen Woods, West Springs, Cougar Ridge and every Calgary quadrant, 7 days a week.

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

Area and assembly

The cost in Oakridge depends on the area and the rated assembly required — a single-layer garage ceiling is different from a two-layer party wall. In Oakridge, 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 Oakridge

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 Oakridge project passes the first time.

Our Oakridge fire-rated drywall process, step by step

Right board, right build-up

In Oakridge 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 Oakridge deliverable: a separation that passes inspection, meets code and looks complete. Stipple ceilings turn up throughout Oakridge, often with several layers from past repairs.

Fire-rated garages, suites and party walls in Oakridge

Garage firewalls

The most common fire-rated job in Oakridge is the garage-to-house separation — Type X board on the common wall and ceiling. Installed and finished to code.

Suites and party walls

Oakridge sees steady legal-suite and party-wall work. We build the rated separations these require. See our legal suite drywall page. Stipple ceilings turn up throughout Oakridge, often with several layers from past repairs.

Common fire-rated situations in Oakridge

In Oakridge, oakridge's original stipple ceilings are a common target for our crews — we scrape and skim them to a smooth flat finish in a day or two per room, then match the wall texture around the room's perimeter so the transition disappears. That is the standard on every job here, big or small — on-site quote, fixed price.
