Getting the corners and the bulkheads right

Basements are full of them

Bulkheads boxing ducts and beams give a Stewart Greens basement many more corners and edges than a plain room, and each one is a cut line.

Where it shows

Under pot lights mounted close to a bulkhead, a wavering line on its edge is very visible. These are what make basement painting slower than the square footage suggests.

Moisture, and what we check before painting

Paint is not a moisture barrier

If a Stewart Greens 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.

The cost in Stewart Greens depends on total square footage, how many rooms and bulkheads the layout has, and whether the drywall is brand new (which needs a full primer coat before paint holds properly). We measure on site and give a fixed price first.
