York drywall in context

About York

York is somewhat of a 'pioneer' neighbourhood.

What we see in York

In York the drywall work is plaster and lath repair, popcorn and stipple ceiling removal, careful patching into original surfaces. We confirm what your home actually needs on site, in writing, before anything starts.

Our York 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 often three coats to fully cover aged paint, patched plaster and stained sections to walls and ceilings, working room by room in your York basement.

One trusted team, drywall then paint, in York

Why primer comes first

Fresh York drywall absorbs unevenly until it is primed right — and an unprimed wall makes any finish coat look patchy. Because we board and finish the basement drywall in York 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.
