Fire-rated drywall in Triwood, installed to code

Fire-rated drywall is not optional where Triwood code calls for it — garage separations, basement suites and party walls all need Type X in a rated assembly to pass inspection and keep the home safe. In Triwood we install fire-rated drywall to code and finish it clean. Triwood is an established NW Calgary community (Charleswood/Brentwood/Collingwood) of mid-century homes with plaster and ceiling work common, so fire-rated work here is common on garages and suites. We cover Triwood, Tuscany, Royal Oak, Rocky Ridge and every Calgary quadrant, 7 days a week.

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

Area and assembly

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

Passing inspection in Triwood

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 Triwood project passes the first time.

Our Triwood fire-rated drywall process, step by step

Right board, right build-up

In Triwood 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. You get an inspection-ready, code-compliant Triwood separation that also looks finished. Housing in Triwood is mixed, which is why we look before we quote rather than after.

Fire-rated garages, suites and party walls in Triwood

Garage firewalls

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

Legal suites and party walls

Basement legal suites and multi-unit party walls are frequent Triwood jobs. We build the rated separations these require. See our legal suite drywall page. Housing in Triwood is mixed, which is why we look before we quote rather than after.
