Our Hollick-Kenyon basement painting process, 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 age and condition of the specific home to walls and ceilings, working room by room in your Hollick-Kenyon basement.

One trusted team, drywall then paint, in Hollick-Kenyon

New drywall needs the right primer

Fresh drywall in a Hollick-Kenyon basement is porous and uneven until primed correctly — skip that and the finish coat goes patchy. Because we board and finish the basement drywall in Hollick-Kenyon 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.
