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

A finished Gateway garage is cleaner, warmer and worth more — but the wall and ceiling shared with the house must be fire-rated to code. In Gateway we hang, tape and finish garage walls and ceilings, with Type X fire-rated board on the Gateway house-side separation. Gateway is a newer Airdrie community where settling cracks, nail pops and basement finishing are common, so garage finishing here is common. We cover Gateway and all of Airdrie, 7 days a week.

What affects the cost of garage drywall in Gateway?

Size, finish and fire rating

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

The firewall in Gateway

Finished garages are common, and the house-side separation must be Type X to code. We install it correctly so your Gateway garage passes inspection. In Gateway we see everything from original finishes to recent renovations on the same block.

Our Gateway garage drywall process, step by step

Fire-rated separation first

In Gateway 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 Gateway assembly properly so it passes inspection. Gateway spans a range of build eras, so what is behind the wall differs street to street.

A clean, usable space

A finished garage in Gateway 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. This comes up on most Gateway garage jobs. See our fire-rated drywall page.

Common garage drywall situations in Gateway

In Gateway, gateway is a mixed-use Airdrie area where we handle both residential drywall repair in the surrounding homes and boarding/taping for renovation and build-out projects nearby, including fire-rated and acoustic board where multi-unit code requires it. That is the standard on every job here, big or small — on-site quote, fixed price.
