Garage Drywall in Metro Detroit: what to expect
Garage drywall ranges from a simple taped wall to a fully finished workshop. For attached garages, the wall and ceiling shared with the house are about fire safety: building codes require a fire separation between the garage and living space, and damaged or missing drywall on that side should be repaired.
Detached garages are more about looks, durability and insulation. Metro Detroit garages see big swings in temperature and humidity, so cold walls and moisture affect how compound cures and how long a finish lasts. Many owners pair drywall with insulation, which you can plan with an insulation pro. For basements, see basement drywall.
What a proper job includes
- Review of which walls and ceilings need fire-rated board
- Check that insulation and wiring are complete and inspected
- Board hung with fasteners suited to the framing
- Joints taped and finished to the agreed level
- Penetrations and gaps at the house wall sealed
- Corner bead on outside corners and openings
- Cleanup and debris removal
What drives the price
- Garage size and ceiling height
- Fire-rated board required on shared walls and ceilings
- Finish level: fire taped only or fully finished
- Insulation installed at the same time
- Moisture resistant board near doors or floors
- Primer and paint included or not

Permits and licensing in Michigan
Adding or replacing drywall that forms the fire separation between an attached garage and the house should meet the building code, so ask the local building department (BSEED in Detroit) what board and coverage it requires and whether a permit applies. Ordinary repairs do not need a permit in Michigan.
Drywall is not listed as its own Maintenance & Alteration trade by LARA. For paid residential work above a threshold set by state law, look for a LARA Residential Builder license, or ask the contractor which license covers the job, and check the number on the LARA lookup.
