Fire-rated drywall in Rivercrest, installed to code

In Rivercrest we install fire-rated drywall to code and finish it clean.

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

Area and assembly

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

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 Rivercrest project passes the first time. In Rivercrest basements the deciding detail is usually access: what has to stay reachable once the ceiling is closed up.

Our Rivercrest fire-rated drywall process, step by step

Right board, right build-up

In Rivercrest 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 Rivercrest deliverable: a separation that passes inspection, meets code and looks complete.
