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.

Fire-Rated Drywall Ogden

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.

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.

Fire-rated garages, suites and party walls in Ogden

Suites and party walls

Ogden sees steady legal-suite and party-wall work. We build the rated separations these require. See our legal suite drywall page.

Common fire-rated situations in Ogden

In an established, older community like Ogden we spend a lot of time repairing cracked and settled plaster, refinishing tired walls and ceilings, and blending patches into original textured surfaces — plus new-construction drywall on the infill homes replacing original lots.
