Garage drywall in Hotchkiss, 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 Hotchkiss we hang, tape and finish garage walls and ceilings, with Type X fire-rated board on the house-side separation. Hotchkiss is one of SE Calgary's newer communities, where fresh installation and first-year settling work are common, so garage finishing here is common. We cover Hotchkiss, Rangeview, Ricardo Ranch, Belvedere and every Calgary quadrant, 7 days a week.

What affects the cost of garage drywall in Hotchkiss?

Size, finish and fire rating

The cost in Hotchkiss 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 Hotchkiss

Finished garages are common, and the house-side separation must be Type X to code. We install it correctly so your Hotchkiss garage passes inspection. Housing in Hotchkiss is mixed, which is why we look before we quote rather than after.

Our Hotchkiss garage drywall process, step by step

Fire-rated separation first

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

Finished and heated garages in Hotchkiss

A clean, usable space

A finished garage in Hotchkiss 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 garage jobs here. See our fire-rated drywall page. Housing in Hotchkiss is mixed, which is why we look before we quote rather than after.

Common garage drywall situations in Hotchkiss

In Hotchkiss, hotchkiss 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. Free on-site quote, one fixed price, and work that holds up after.
