Fire-rated drywall in Tower Hill, installed to code

Fire-rated drywall is not optional where the code calls for it — garage-to-house separations, basement suites and party walls in a Tower Hill home all need Type X board in a rated assembly to pass inspection and keep the home safe. In Tower Hill we install fire-rated drywall to code and finish it clean. Tower Hill is one of Okotoks’s established communities close to the town core, where the Tower Hill calls we get most are texture-matched repairs on original walls and ceilings, plus basement development as Tower Hill owners finish lower levels. We cover Tower Hill and all of Okotoks, 7 days a week.

What affects the cost of fire-rated drywall in Tower Hill?

Area and assembly in Tower Hill

The cost in Tower Hill depends on the area and the rated assembly required — a single-layer Tower Hill garage ceiling is different from a two-layer party wall. Type X board costs more than standard, and the rating dictates the build-up in a Tower Hill home. We price off the spec and a site look.

Passing inspection in Tower Hill

The common rated jobs in Tower Hill 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 in Tower Hill so your project passes the first time. Basement development is common in Tower Hill, and a basement behaves differently from the rest of the house — cooler, damper, and less forgiving of a rushed finish.

Our Tower Hill fire-rated drywall process, step by step

Right board, right build-up in Tower Hill

In Tower Hill 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 in a Tower Hill home.

Seal and finish in Tower Hill

Penetrations and edges are where a rated assembly fails, so we firestop and seal them in Tower Hill, then tape and finish the board clean. You get an inspection-ready, code-compliant Tower Hill separation that also looks finished. A lot of our Tower Hill work starts in the basement, where the ceiling has to stay openable for the plumbing above it.

Fire-rated garages, suites and party walls in Tower Hill

Legal suites and party walls in Tower Hill

Basement legal suites and multi-unit party walls are frequent in Tower Hill. We build the rated separations these require. See our legal suite drywall page for more on Tower Hill suite conversions.

What we tend to find in Tower Hill

Tower Hill has been through many freeze-thaw cycles, so before quoting fire-rated drywall we look at whether a crack is old movement that has stopped or something still opening.

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