Garage drywall in Sandstone, 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 Sandstone we hang, tape and finish garage walls and ceilings, with Type X fire-rated board on the house-side separation. Sandstone is an established Okotoks community where homes have been through at least one settling cycle, so garage finishing here is common. We cover Sandstone, D’Arcy, Crystal Shores, Drake Landing and the Okotoks area, 7 days a week.

What affects the cost of garage drywall in Sandstone?

Size, finish and fire rating

The cost in Sandstone 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 Sandstone

Finished garages are common, and the house-side separation must be Type X to code. We install it correctly so your Sandstone garage passes inspection.

Our Sandstone garage drywall process, step by step

Fire-rated separation first

In Sandstone 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.

Finished and heated garages in Sandstone

A clean, usable space

A finished garage in Sandstone 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.

Common garage drywall situations in Sandstone

New finishing and re-dos

We both finish bare garages and re-do older garage drywall that has been damaged or never properly finished.

Heated garages and workshops

For heated Sandstone garages and workshops, a proper finished drywall surface holds the heat better and gives a clean, paintable space — with the fire separation built in.
