Garage drywall in Cornerstone, boarded and fire-rated to code

A finished garage is cleaner, warmer and worth more — but the wall and ceiling shared with the house have to be fire-rated to code. In Cornerstone we hang, tape and finish garage walls and ceilings, with Type X fire-rated board on the house-side separation. Cornerstone is an Okotoks residential community, so garage finishing here is common. We cover Cornerstone, D’Arcy, Crystal Shores, Drake Landing and the Okotoks area, 7 days a week.

What affects the cost of garage drywall in Cornerstone?

Size, finish and fire rating

The cost in Cornerstone depends on the garage size, the finish level, and the fire-rated separation on the house-side wall and ceiling. A boarded-only garage is less than a fully taped and finished one. We price off the garage and a site look.

The firewall in Cornerstone

Because Cornerstone is an Okotoks residential community, finished garages are common, and the house-side separation must be Type X to code. We install it correctly so your Cornerstone garage passes inspection. Cornerstone spans a range of build eras, so what is behind the wall differs street to street.

Our Cornerstone garage drywall process, step by step

Fire-rated separation first

In Cornerstone 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. We seal the rated assembly properly so it passes inspection. Housing in Cornerstone is mixed, which is why we look before we quote rather than after.

Finished and heated garages in Cornerstone

A clean, usable space

A finished garage in Cornerstone 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. Because Cornerstone is an Okotoks residential community, this comes up on most garage jobs here. See our fire-rated drywall page.

Common garage drywall situations in Cornerstone

In Cornerstone, cornerstone is a residential neighbourhood in Okotoks. Build years vary across the neighbourhood, so rather than assume what is behind the wall we confirm it on site — the finish, the texture and how the existing surface has aged all change how the repair is approached. We handle all of it the same careful way — on-site quote, fixed price, done right.
