Our Overlanders 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 colour change and wall condition to walls and ceilings, working room by room in your Overlanders basement.
