Garage drywall in Auburn Bay, boarded and fire-rated to code

Cleaner, warmer, more valuable — the finished Auburn Bay garage — as long as the house-adjoining surfaces are fire-rated to code. In Auburn Bay we hang, tape and finish garage walls and ceilings, with The Auburn Bay separation wall and ceiling: Type X fire-rated. Auburn Bay is an SE Calgary community with a mix of older homes and newer builds, so garage finishing here is common. We cover Auburn Bay, Mahogany, Cranston, Seton and every Calgary quadrant, 7 days a week.

What affects the cost of garage drywall in Auburn Bay?

Size, finish and fire rating

The cost in Auburn Bay depends on the garage size, the finish level, and the fire-rated separation on the house-side wall and ceiling. The gap between boarded and fully finished shows in every Auburn Bay garage. We price off the garage and a site look.

The firewall in Auburn Bay

Finished garages are common, and the house-side separation must be Type X to code. We install it correctly so your Auburn Bay garage passes inspection. Much of Auburn Bay carries an orange-peel finish, which is easy to apply and unforgiving to match badly.

Our Auburn Bay garage drywall process, step by step

Fire-rated separation first

In Auburn Bay we board the house-side wall and ceiling with Type X fire-rated board, because that separation is a code requirement, not a finish option.

Board, tape and finish

We board the rest of the garage, tape and finish to the level you want — a clean paint-ready finish for a heated or finished garage, or boarded only if you are painting it yourself. Sealed right, the Auburn Bay rated separation clears inspection. A lot of our Auburn Bay work starts in the basement, where the ceiling has to stay openable for the plumbing above it.

A clean, usable space

A finished garage in Auburn Bay is warmer, cleaner and more usable as a workshop or storage — we board and finish the walls and ceiling so it is ready for paint.

The code-required firewall

Whatever the finish, the house-side separation is Type X fire-rated to code. Most Auburn Bay garage projects run into this. See our fire-rated drywall page. Knockdown is the standard ceiling texture through Auburn Bay, so a patch gets tested for match before the whole ceiling is sprayed.

Common garage drywall situations in Auburn Bay

In Auburn Bay, auburn Bay was established in 2005. Homes of that vintage generally have knockdown ceilings and orange-peel walls, and the common calls are settling cracks, nail pops and basement development. That is the standard on every job here, big or small — on-site quote, fixed price.

What we tend to find in Auburn Bay

Homes in Auburn Bay are settled, so the garage drywall is more often repair and refinish than new board — and the repair has to disappear into a surface that has aged.

Orange peel is common on Auburn Bay walls. It is quick to apply and unforgiving to match, so the tip and the timing matter more than the mud.

A lot of the work in Auburn Bay starts in the basement, where the ceiling has to stay openable for the plumbing and ducting above it.
