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

A finished Hillhurst garage is cleaner, warmer and worth more — but the wall and ceiling shared with the house must be fire-rated to code. In Hillhurst we hang, tape and finish garage walls and ceilings, with Type X fire-rated board on the Hillhurst house-side separation. Hillhurst is an older NW Calgary community where settling cracks, aging texture and the occasional plaster repair come up, so garage finishing here is common. We cover Hillhurst, Brentwood, Charleswood, Collingwood and every Calgary quadrant, 7 days a week.

What affects the cost of garage drywall in Hillhurst?

Size, finish and fire rating

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

The firewall in Hillhurst

Finished garages are common, and the house-side separation must be Type X to code. We install it correctly so your Hillhurst garage passes inspection. Infill construction in Hillhurst means new-build finishing and old-house repair often run on the same block.

Our Hillhurst garage drywall process, step by step

Fire-rated separation first

In Hillhurst 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 Hillhurst assembly properly so it passes inspection.

A clean, usable space

A finished garage in Hillhurst 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 Hillhurst garage jobs. See our fire-rated drywall page. Infill construction in Hillhurst means new-build finishing and old-house repair often run on the same block.

Common garage drywall situations in Hillhurst

In Hillhurst, in an established, older community like Hillhurst we spend a lot of time repairing cracked and settled plaster, refinishing tired walls and ceilings, and blending patches into original textured surfaces — plus new-construction drywall on the infill homes replacing original lots. Assessed on site, priced up front, and finished properly — every time.

What garage drywall usually involves in Hillhurst

Homes in Hillhurst 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.

In older Hillhurst houses it is worth knowing whether there is lath behind the wall before anything is opened up.

Infill construction in Hillhurst means new-build finishing and old-house repair often run on the same street.
