Fire-rated drywall in Redstone, installed to code

No shortcuts on Redstone fire-rating — separations, suites and party walls need code Type X rated assemblies to clear inspection and keep people safe. In Redstone we install fire-rated drywall to code and finish it clean. Redstone is one of NE Calgary's newer communities, where fresh installation and first-year settling work are common, so fire-rated work here is common on garages and suites.

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

Area and assembly

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

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 Redstone project passes the first time. Basement development is common in Redstone, and a basement behaves differently from the rest of the house — cooler, damper, and less forgiving of a rushed finish.

Our Redstone fire-rated drywall process, step by step

Right board, right build-up

In Redstone 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 Redstone separation the inspector approves and the eye approves too. Most of Redstone went up recently enough that we are usually working against a builder's original finish rather than someone else's repair.

Fire-rated garages, suites and party walls in Redstone

Garage firewalls

The most common fire-rated job in Redstone 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 Redstone homes and multi-unit buildings. We build the rated separations these require. See our legal suite drywall page. A lot of our Redstone work starts in the basement, where the ceiling has to stay openable for the plumbing above it.

Common fire-rated situations in Redstone

In Redstone, redstone is a young community, so it's new-build work: first-year settling cracks and nail pops, basement development for first owners, and builder-grade walls upgraded to Level 5 — done clean in occupied, closely-spaced laned homes. Assessed on site, priced up front, and finished properly — every time.

In Redstone

Redstone: what shapes the job

In a newly built Redstone home the drywall has not yet been through a full winter, so we plan the fire-rated drywall around settling that is still happening rather than settling that has finished.

Basements in Redstone run cooler and damper than the rest of the house, and that affects both the board choice and how long each coat needs.

In Redstone we are often the second trade to look at a wall, so the first question is what the original finish actually was.
