Scarborough commercial builds get fire-rated walls installed correctly to Ontario code.
Scarborough’s commercial market has grown significantly in recent years — new retail plazas, healthcare facilities, food service businesses, light industrial operations and mixed-use developments are adding to a building stock that already spans a wide range of occupancy types across the district. From the commercial strips along Kingston Road and Eglinton Avenue to the industrial and employment lands further north, Scarborough’s commercial buildings are subject to Ontario Building Code fire separation requirements that govern a wide range of wall, ceiling and enclosure assemblies throughout each building.
We deliver commercial fire-resistant drywall installation in Scarborough for the full range of the district’s commercial building types. Each project begins with a thorough on-site assessment — we review the building’s layout, occupancy classifications and fire separation requirements and we install rated assemblies that meet OBC standards, pass inspection and provide the fire safety performance the code requires.
Express Drywall Services has served Scarborough’s commercial construction sector for over 20 years. Our fire-rated installations are code-compliant, backed by a 1-year warranty and delivered on schedule by our own experienced crew. Free estimates on-site within 48 hours — transparent pricing, no subcontractors.
Assessed. Rated. Compliant.
Every Scarborough commercial project follows our structured five-step process — delivering code-compliant fire-rated assemblies on time and on spec.
Built Right. Passed First Time.
Scarborough’s commercial buildings — spanning retail, food service, healthcare, light industrial and mixed-use occupancies — are subject to OBC fire separation requirements that apply to a wide range of assemblies throughout each building. Walls between different occupancies, stairwell and corridor enclosures, mechanical and electrical room assemblies and party walls between tenants all require correctly rated drywall systems.
In Scarborough’s older commercial stock, change-of-use and renovation projects regularly require fire separation upgrades to bring buildings into compliance with current OBC requirements. Every assembly must be correctly specified, correctly installed and correctly detailed at penetrations and perimeters to pass inspection. Commercial fire-resistant drywall installation in Scarborough is a code-mandated requirement for any compliant commercial project — not an optional specification.
