Garage drywall in Duggan, boarded and fire-rated to code

Finishing a Duggan garage adds warmth, cleanliness and value — provided the house-side wall and ceiling carry code fire-rating. In Duggan we hang, tape and finish garage walls and ceilings, with Duggan house-side separations built in Type X fire-rated board. Duggan is an Whitemud community with a mix of older homes and newer builds, so garage finishing here is common. We cover Duggan, Aspen Gardens, Bearspaw, Blue Quill and Whitemud, 7 days a week.

Our Duggan garage drywall process, step by step

Fire-rated separation first

In Duggan we board the house-side wall and ceiling with Type X fire-rated board, because that separation is a code requirement, not a finish option.

Board, tape and finish

We board the rest of the garage, tape and finish to the level you want — a clean paint-ready finish for a heated or finished garage, or boarded only if you are painting it yourself. We seal the rated Duggan assembly properly so it passes inspection.
