Garage drywall in Ricardo Ranch, boarded and fire-rated to code

Cleaner, warmer, more valuable — the finished Ricardo Ranch garage — as long as the house-adjoining surfaces are fire-rated to code. In Ricardo Ranch we hang, tape and finish garage walls and ceilings, with The Ricardo Ranch separation wall and ceiling: Type X fire-rated. Ricardo Ranch 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 Ricardo Ranch, Aspen Woods, West Springs, Cougar Ridge and every Calgary quadrant, 7 days a week.

What affects the cost of garage drywall in Ricardo Ranch?

Size, finish and fire rating

The cost in Ricardo Ranch 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 Ricardo Ranch garage. We price off the garage and a site look.

The firewall in Ricardo Ranch

Finished garages are common, and the house-side separation must be Type X to code. We install it correctly so your Ricardo Ranch garage passes inspection. New homes in Ricardo Ranch tend to have long unbroken wall runs and high ceilings, which changes how a seam has to be feathered.

Our Ricardo Ranch garage drywall process, step by step

Fire-rated separation first

In Ricardo Ranch 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 Ricardo Ranch rated separation clears inspection. Basement development is common in Ricardo Ranch, and a basement behaves differently from the rest of the house — cooler, damper, and less forgiving of a rushed finish.

Finished and heated garages in Ricardo Ranch

A clean, usable space

A finished garage in Ricardo Ranch 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 Ricardo Ranch garage projects run into this. See our fire-rated drywall page. Ceilings in Ricardo Ranch are typically knockdown, and matching that pattern is the part of a repair people notice.

Common garage drywall situations in Ricardo Ranch

In Ricardo Ranch, ricardo Ranch 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. One fixed price after an honest on-site look, and the job done right the first time.

What we tend to find in Ricardo Ranch

Ricardo Ranch is recent enough that we are normally working with original, untouched surfaces — which makes matching straightforward and keeps the garage drywall quicker than it would be in an older area.

Builder deficiency work is common in Ricardo Ranch — nail pops, corner cracks and seams that only appeared after possession.

Ceilings here are typically knockdown, and matching that spray pattern is the part people notice if it is done badly — so we test the match before committing to the whole ceiling.
