Fire-rated drywall in Ravenswood, installed to code

Where code requires it in Ravenswood, 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 Ravenswood we install fire-rated drywall to code and finish it clean. Ravenswood is a newer Airdrie community where settling cracks, nail pops and basement finishing are common, so fire-rated work here is common on garages and suites. We cover Ravenswood and all of Airdrie, 7 days a week.

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

Area and assembly

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

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 Ravenswood project passes the first time. Removal is a frequent Ravenswood request, and the age of the ceiling decides how that work is approached.

Our Ravenswood fire-rated drywall process, step by step

Right board, right build-up

In Ravenswood 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 Ravenswood deliverable: a separation that passes inspection, meets code and looks complete. Where Ravenswood still has stipple, we check how many coats are on it before deciding to match or remove.
