Do you do garage drywall in Varsity?

Yes — garage drywall in Varsity is part of our regular work, and we are usually booked within the week. We also cover Tuscany, Royal Oak, Rocky Ridge and every Calgary quadrant.

Does my Varsity garage need fire-rated drywall?

The wall and ceiling shared with the house do — that separation must be Type X fire-rated to code. We install it correctly so your Varsity garage passes inspection.

Can you finish a heated garage?

Yes — we board, tape and finish heated and finished garages to a clean paint-ready surface, with the code-required fire separation built in.

Can you board only and let me paint?

Yes — we can board your Varsity 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 Varsity?

Yes. We install the firewall to code and finish the garage clean, and if something is not right we come back and make it right.

Garage drywall in Varsity, 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 Varsity we hang, tape and finish garage walls and ceilings, with Type X fire-rated board on the house-side separation. Varsity is an established, sought-after NW Calgary community of 1960s-70s homes and newer infills where plaster, stipple and reno drywall all come up, so garage finishing here is common. We cover Varsity, Tuscany, Royal Oak, Rocky Ridge and every Calgary quadrant, 7 days a week.

What affects the cost of garage drywall in Varsity?

Size, finish and fire rating

The cost in Varsity 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 Varsity

Because Varsity is an established, sought-after NW Calgary community of 1960s-70s homes and newer infills where plaster, stipple and reno drywall all come up, finished garages are common, and the house-side separation must be Type X to code. We install it correctly so your Varsity garage passes inspection.

Our Varsity garage drywall process, step by step

Fire-rated separation first

In Varsity 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 Varsity

A clean, usable space

A finished garage in Varsity 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. Because Varsity is an established, sought-after NW Calgary community of 1960s-70s homes and newer infills where plaster, stipple and reno drywall all come up, this comes up on most garage jobs here. See our fire-rated drywall page.

Common garage drywall situations in Varsity

New finishing and re-dos

An established, sought-after nw calgary community of 1960s-70s homes and newer infills where plaster, stipple and reno drywall all come up, so 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 Varsity garages and workshops, a proper finished drywall surface holds the heat better and gives a clean, paintable space — with the fire separation built in.
