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

Area and assembly

The cost in Summerside 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 Summerside assembly build follows the rating. We price off the spec and a site look.

Passing inspection in Summerside

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 Summerside project passes the first time.

Our Summerside fire-rated drywall process, step by step

Right board, right build-up

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