Fire-rated drywall in Ogden, installed to code

Where code requires it in Ogden, 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 Ogden we install fire-rated drywall to code and finish it clean. Ogden is an established SW Calgary community of 1960s-70s homes with plaster repair and stipple-ceiling work common, so fire-rated work here is common on garages and suites. We cover Ogden, Aspen Woods, West Springs, Cougar Ridge and every Calgary quadrant, 7 days a week.

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

Area and assembly

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

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 Ogden project passes the first time. In older Ogden houses it is worth knowing whether there is lath behind the wall before anything is cut.

Our Ogden fire-rated drywall process, step by step

Right board, right build-up

In Ogden 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 Ogden deliverable: a separation that passes inspection, meets code and looks complete. Infill construction in Ogden means new-build finishing and old-house repair often run on the same block.

We install fire-rated drywall across Ogden and every Calgary quadrant, 7 days a week. The Ogden quote is free and the price fixed — clean site, backed workmanship. Not right in Ogden?
