What affects the cost of fire-rated drywall in Ambleside?

Area and assembly

The cost in Ambleside depends on the area and the rated assembly required — a single-layer garage ceiling is different from a two-layer party wall. The Ambleside rating drives the build-up, and Type X board carries a premium over standard. We price off the spec and a site look.

Right board, right build-up

In Ambleside we confirm the required rating, then install the correct Type X board in the right layers — the assembly, not just the board, is what carries the rating.

Seal and finish

Penetrations and edges are where a rated assembly fails, so we firestop and seal them, then tape and finish the board clean. Code-compliant, inspection-ready and visually finished — the Ambleside outcome.
