Garage drywall in Keystone Hills, boarded and fire-rated to code

Cleaner, warmer, more valuable — the finished Keystone Hills garage — as long as the house-adjoining surfaces are fire-rated to code. In Keystone Hills we hang, tape and finish garage walls and ceilings, with The Keystone Hills separation wall and ceiling: Type X fire-rated. Keystone Hills is one of NE Calgary's newer communities, where fresh installation and first-year settling work are common, so garage finishing here is common. We cover Keystone Hills, Aspen Woods, West Springs, Cougar Ridge and every Calgary quadrant, 7 days a week.

What affects the cost of garage drywall in Keystone Hills?

Size, finish and fire rating

The cost in Keystone Hills 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 Keystone Hills garage. We price off the garage and a site look.

The firewall in Keystone Hills

Finished garages are common, and the house-side separation must be Type X to code. We install it correctly so your Keystone Hills garage passes inspection. Basement development is common in Keystone Hills, and a basement behaves differently from the rest of the house — cooler, damper, and less forgiving of a rushed finish.

Our Keystone Hills garage drywall process, step by step

Fire-rated separation first

In Keystone Hills 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 Keystone Hills rated separation clears inspection.

Finished and heated garages in Keystone Hills

A clean, usable space

A finished garage in Keystone Hills 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 Keystone Hills garage projects run into this. See our fire-rated drywall page. New homes in Keystone Hills tend to have long unbroken wall runs and high ceilings, which changes how a seam has to be feathered.

Common garage drywall situations in Keystone Hills

In Keystone Hills, keystone Hills is a community still building out. Homes there are current-build, so ceilings are typically knockdown and the work is new-build boarding and taping, basement development, and the first-season movement that shows up as a house dries out. That is the standard on every job here, big or small — on-site quote, fixed price.

What to expect from garage drywall in Keystone Hills

New construction in Keystone Hills means the board is usually sound and square, so garage drywall here is about finishing to a standard the builder did not, rather than undoing someone else's repair.

Basements in Keystone Hills run cooler and damper than the rest of the house, and that affects both the board choice and how long each coat needs.

In Keystone Hills we are often the second trade to look at a wall, so the first question is what the original finish actually was.
