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

A finished Waterstone garage is cleaner, warmer and worth more — but the wall and ceiling shared with the house must be fire-rated to code. In Waterstone we hang, tape and finish garage walls and ceilings, with Type X fire-rated board on the Waterstone house-side separation. Waterstone is a newer Airdrie community where settling cracks, nail pops and basement finishing are common, so garage finishing here is common. We cover Waterstone and all of Airdrie, 7 days a week.

What affects the cost of garage drywall in Waterstone?

Size, finish and fire rating

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

The firewall in Waterstone

Finished garages are common, and the house-side separation must be Type X to code. We install it correctly so your Waterstone garage passes inspection. A lot of our Waterstone work starts in the basement, where the ceiling has to stay openable for the plumbing above it.

Our Waterstone garage drywall process, step by step

Fire-rated separation first

In Waterstone 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 Waterstone assembly properly so it passes inspection. A lot of our Waterstone work starts in the basement, where the ceiling has to stay openable for the plumbing above it.

A clean, usable space

A finished garage in Waterstone 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 Waterstone garage jobs. See our fire-rated drywall page.
