Ceiling Repair Canossa Edmonton: your questions answered

What are the little bumps in a row on my ceiling?

Nail pops — fasteners backing out as the framing dries and moves. They need re-fixing into solid framing, not just filling. Filling over a proud fastener means the same dots return within a year.

Can you match my textured ceiling?

Usually. We match the texture by sample before it goes on the Canossa ceiling and feather well past the repair. Where a close enough match cannot be got, re-texturing the whole ceiling looks better than an obvious circle.

Why does the same crack keep coming back?

Almost always because it was filled rather than re-taped. A crack following a taped joint is a joint that moves, and filler alone bridges the gap and re-cracks in the next dry spell. The old tape has to come out and new tape be bedded in.

My ceiling is sagging between the joists. Is that serious?

It means fasteners have let go, the board has been overloaded by insulation, or it has taken moisture. Re-securing works if the board is sound; if it has softened, that section comes out. Screwing soft board back up just makes a wavy ceiling.

Can you just paint over the water stain?

Only if the board behind it rings solid and the leak is fixed. The mark shows where water ran out, not where it went — the board is often soft well past the visible edge. We sound it and cut back to sound material.

How long does a ceiling repair take in Edmonton?

Several thin coats with drying between, so more than one visit. The room is usable in between but furniture stays covered. A ceiling repair promised in a day is either very small or going to crack.
