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

Area and assembly

The cost in Minchau depends on the area and the rated assembly required — a single-layer garage ceiling is different from a two-layer party wall. Expect Type X to price above regular board; the Minchau assembly build follows the rating. We price off the spec and a site look.

Passing inspection in Minchau

The common rated jobs here are garages and suites. The rating only holds if the assembly is built and sealed exactly to spec, so we install it to code and seal penetrations properly so your Minchau project passes the first time.

Our Minchau fire-rated drywall process, step by step

Right board, right build-up

In Minchau 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. The Minchau deliverable: a separation that passes inspection, meets code and looks complete.
