Our St. Albert fire-rated drywall process, step by step

Right board, right build-up

In St. Albert 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 St. Albert deliverable: a separation that passes inspection, meets code and looks complete.

Fire-rated garages, suites and party walls in St. Albert

Garage firewalls

The most common fire-rated job in St. Albert is the garage-to-house separation — Type X board on the common wall and ceiling. Code-compliant install and finish.

Legal suites and shared walls

Frequent work in St. Albert homes and multi-unit buildings. We build the rated separations these require. See our legal suite drywall page.

What affects the cost of fire-rated drywall in St. Albert?

Area and assembly

The cost in St. Albert depends on the area and the rated assembly required — a single-layer garage ceiling is different from a two-layer party wall. In St. Albert, the required rating sets the assembly build-up — and Type X runs above standard board on cost. We price off the spec and a site look.

Passing inspection in St. Albert

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 St. Albert project passes the first time.
