Our Westview Village fire-rated drywall process, step by step

Right board, right build-up

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

What affects the cost of fire-rated drywall in Westview Village?

Area and assembly

The cost in Westview Village depends on the area and the rated assembly required — a single-layer garage ceiling is different from a two-layer party wall. In Westview Village, 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 Westview Village

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 Westview Village project passes the first time.
