Fire-rated drywall in Roxboro, installed to code

In Roxboro the code decides: garage separations, basement suites and party walls must carry Type X board in a rated assembly to pass inspection and protect the home. In Roxboro we install fire-rated drywall to code and finish it clean. Roxboro is an older inner-NW Calgary community mixing character homes with infill builds, where plaster repair and new-build finishing both come up, so fire-rated work here is common on garages and suites. We cover Roxboro, Tuscany, Royal Oak, Rocky Ridge and every Calgary quadrant, 7 days a week.

Fire-Rated Drywall Roxboro

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

Area and assembly

The cost in Roxboro depends on the area and the rated assembly required — a single-layer garage ceiling is different from a two-layer party wall. Expect Type X to price above regular board; the Roxboro assembly build follows the rating. We price off the spec and a site look.

Passing inspection in Roxboro

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 Roxboro project passes the first time.

Our Roxboro fire-rated drywall process, step by step

Right board, right build-up

In Roxboro 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. Code-compliant, inspection-ready and visually finished — the Roxboro outcome.

Fire-rated garages, suites and party walls in Roxboro

Garage firewalls

The most common fire-rated job in Roxboro is the garage-to-house separation — Type X board on the common wall and ceiling. To-code install and finish.

Party walls and legal suites

Both are regular calls across Roxboro. We build the rated separations these require. See our legal suite drywall page.

Common fire-rated situations in Roxboro

Roxboro is one of the area's older, character neighbourhoods, so the work here runs to genuine plaster repair, taking down dated textured ceilings, and patching into original lath-and-plaster surfaces so a repair disappears. Where owners are renovating or building infills, we also handle full new-construction boarding and finishing. Same crew, same process on every job — on-site quote, fixed price, no surprises.
