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

Finishing a Shaganappi garage adds warmth, cleanliness and value — provided the house-side wall and ceiling carry code fire-rating. In Shaganappi we hang, tape and finish garage walls and ceilings, with Shaganappi house-side separations built in Type X fire-rated board. Shaganappi is one of NW Calgary's newer communities, where fresh installation and first-year settling work are common, so garage finishing here is common. We cover Shaganappi, Tuscany, Royal Oak, Rocky Ridge and every Calgary quadrant, 7 days a week.

What affects the cost of garage drywall in Shaganappi?

Size, finish and fire rating

The cost in Shaganappi depends on the garage size, the finish level, and the fire-rated separation on the house-side wall and ceiling. Board-only leaves a Shaganappi garage short of what taping and finishing deliver. We price off the garage and a site look.

The firewall in Shaganappi

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

Our Shaganappi garage drywall process, step by step

Fire-rated separation first

In Shaganappi 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. The Shaganappi rated assembly gets sealed correctly — inspection-ready.

A clean, usable space

A finished garage in Shaganappi 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. Nearly every Shaganappi garage call raises it. See our fire-rated drywall page.

Common garage drywall situations in Shaganappi

A lot of our Shaganappi calls come from owners partway through a renovation who have opened up a wall and found old plaster, horsehair lath, or a mix of both — we can patch back into it or remove and replace with modern board, whichever suits the rest of the room. Free on-site quote, one fixed price, and work that holds up after.

Do you do garage drywall in Shaganappi?

Does my Shaganappi garage need fire-rated drywall?
Only the house-side surfaces of a Shaganappi garage — and that separation requires code Type X fire-rating. We install it correctly so your Shaganappi garage passes inspection.
Can you finish a heated garage?
Yes — heated and finished Shaganappi garages get boarded, taped and finished paint-ready, with the code fire separation built in.
Board-only with me painting — possible in Shaganappi?
Yes — we can board your Shaganappi garage (with the required fire-rated separation) and leave the finishing and paint to you, or finish it fully.
Do you stand behind your garage drywall in Shaganappi?
Yes. The Shaganappi firewall goes in to code, the garage finishes clean, and any issue brings us back to fix it.
Is it worth keeping the original plaster in our Shaganappi character home, or should we just replace it with drywall?
Depends on the damage — small areas are usually cheaper and more true-to-character to repair in place; if a whole wall is failing, replacing with drywall and matching the surrounding texture is often the better long-term call. We'll tell you honestly which applies.
