Basement painting in Empire Park, from the crew that boards and finishes it

Paint is the last step of an Empire Park basement build, and it can only be as good as the drywall beneath. In Empire Park we board, tape and finish the basement, then prime and paint it — the trusted local professionals, start to finish. Empire Park is an Scona community with a mix of older homes and newer builds, so basement projects here are common. We cover Empire Park, Allendale, Argyll, Belgravia and Scona, 7 days a week.

Lower light changes the colour you should pick

Basements eat colour

A shade that reads warm and light upstairs often reads grey and cold in a Empire Park basement, because there is far less natural light and what there is comes from small high windows.

What we suggest

Test the actual colour on the actual wall and look at it after dark under the lights you will use. A colour chosen in a bright showroom rarely survives the trip downstairs.

Moisture, and what we check before painting

Paint is not a moisture barrier

If a Empire Park basement wall is damp, paint will fail — bubbling, peeling or a musty smell that returns.

What has to be settled first

The drainage, any seepage and the insulation and vapour control behind the board. We would rather flag a damp reading than paint over it and be back in a year.

Ventilation while painting a basement

The hardest room to air out

A Empire Park basement has small windows and often none that open, so paint smell lingers far longer than upstairs.

How we manage it

Mechanical ventilation while working and after, low-VOC products where they suit the job, and sequencing so the family is not sleeping next to a freshly painted space. We will tell you which products still smell regardless.

Our Empire Park basement painting process in Edmonton, step by step

Confirm the drywall is ready

Whether we boarded it or another contractor did, we confirm the mud is fully cured before we prime — painting over damp compound is the most common reason a basement paint job fails early.

Prime, then finish

We prime the new surface fully, then apply two to three coats depending on the colour change and wall condition to walls and ceilings, working room by room in your Empire Park basement.

One trusted team, drywall then paint, in Empire Park

Prime fresh board properly

Unprimed new drywall in Empire Park drinks paint unevenly — the finish coat shows it as patchiness. Because we board and finish the basement drywall in Empire Park ourselves, we know exactly when it is dry and ready to prime.

No gap between trades

We move from finishing the drywall straight into priming and painting, without waiting on a separate painter's schedule.
