Fire-rated drywall in Strathcona Park, installed to code

No shortcuts on Strathcona Park fire-rating — separations, suites and party walls need code Type X rated assemblies to clear inspection and keep people safe. In Strathcona Park we install fire-rated drywall to code and finish it clean. Strathcona Park is an inner-NW Calgary community of character homes and infills where plaster repair and new-build finishing are common, so fire-rated work here is common on garages and suites. We cover Strathcona Park, Tuscany, Royal Oak, Rocky Ridge and every Calgary quadrant, 7 days a week.

What affects the cost of fire-rated drywall in Strathcona Park?

Area and assembly

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

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 Strathcona Park project passes the first time.

Our Strathcona Park fire-rated drywall process, step by step

Right board, right build-up

In Strathcona Park 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 Strathcona Park separation the inspector approves and the eye approves too. Stipple ceilings turn up throughout Strathcona Park, often with several layers from past repairs.

Fire-rated garages, suites and party walls in Strathcona Park

Garage firewalls

The most common fire-rated job in Strathcona Park 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 Strathcona Park homes and multi-unit buildings. We build the rated separations these require. See our legal suite drywall page. Ceilings in Strathcona Park are typically knockdown, and matching that pattern is the part of a repair people notice.

Common fire-rated situations in Strathcona Park

In Strathcona Park, strathcona Park’s 1980s and 1990s homes often still carry the original stipple ceiling and knockdown or orange-peel walls, so texture matching is central to almost every job we do here, whether it is a single patch or a full ceiling removal.

What we tend to find in Strathcona Park

In Strathcona Park we see original finishes and recent renovations on the same block, so the fire-rated drywall is scoped per house, not per postcode.

Much of Strathcona Park carries an orange-peel finish, where a patch that is technically flat can still stand out because the spray pattern does not line up.

Where Strathcona Park still has stipple, we check how many coats are already on it before deciding whether to match it or take it back.
