Fire-rated drywall in Yorkville, installed to code

In Yorkville 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 Yorkville we install fire-rated drywall to code and finish it clean. Yorkville is a newer NW Calgary community where settling cracks, nail pops and basement finishing are common, so fire-rated work here is common on garages and suites. We cover Yorkville, Brentwood, Charleswood, Collingwood and every Calgary quadrant, 7 days a week.

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

Area and assembly

The cost in Yorkville 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 Yorkville assembly build follows the rating. We price off the spec and a site look.

Passing inspection in Yorkville

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 Yorkville project passes the first time. Yorkville spans a range of build eras, so what is behind the wall differs street to street.

Our Yorkville fire-rated drywall process, step by step

Right board, right build-up

In Yorkville 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 Yorkville outcome. In Yorkville we see everything from original finishes to recent renovations on the same block.

Fire-rated garages, suites and party walls in Yorkville

Garage firewalls

The most common fire-rated job in Yorkville 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 Yorkville. We build the rated separations these require. See our legal suite drywall page. Yorkville spans a range of build eras, so what is behind the wall differs street to street.

Common fire-rated situations in Yorkville

In Yorkville, yorkville owners often want their brand-new builder-grade walls upgraded to Level 5 before their first repaint, especially in rooms with pot lights or big windows where a Level 4 finish can show under raking light. Assessed on site, priced up front, and finished properly — every time.
