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

A finished Martindale garage is cleaner, warmer and worth more — but the wall and ceiling shared with the house must be fire-rated to code. In Martindale we hang, tape and finish garage walls and ceilings, with Type X fire-rated board on the Martindale house-side separation. Martindale is an established NE Calgary community where reno, repair and ceiling drywall are common, so garage finishing here is common. We cover Martindale, Saddle Ridge, Taradale, Skyview Ranch and every Calgary quadrant, 7 days a week.

What affects the cost of garage drywall in Martindale?

Size, finish and fire rating

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

The firewall in Martindale

Finished garages are common, and the house-side separation must be Type X to code. We install it correctly so your Martindale garage passes inspection. Where Martindale still has stipple, we check how many coats are on it before deciding to match or remove.

Our Martindale garage drywall process, step by step

Fire-rated separation first

In Martindale 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 Martindale assembly properly so it passes inspection.

A clean, usable space

A finished garage in Martindale 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 Martindale garage jobs. See our fire-rated drywall page. Where Martindale still has stipple, we check how many coats are on it before deciding to match or remove.

Common garage drywall situations in Martindale

In Martindale, martindale is a community built out through the 1980s and 1990s. Homes from those decades typically carry sprayed ceiling texture — stipple or popcorn — so matching the existing finish is usually what decides whether a repair disappears, and pre-1990 texture is treated as unknown until its age is confirmed.

What we tend to find in Martindale

In Martindale we see original finishes and recent renovations on the same block, so the garage drywall is scoped per house, not per postcode.

Stipple ceilings turn up throughout Martindale, often with more than one layer from earlier repairs, and each layer changes how the new work has to be feathered.

Popcorn ceilings are still in place in parts of Martindale. Anything from that era is treated as unknown until its age is established, and handled accordingly.
