Ceiling Repair Westmount Edmonton: your questions answered

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.

Why does my Westmount ceiling keep cracking in the same spot?

If the crack came back, the Westmount repair treated the symptom only. Homes move with Edmonton's dry climate, and a crack over a seam needs to be re-taped, not just filled. The Westmount fix is re-taped and finished to keep the crack from returning.

Can you match my textured ceiling?

Usually. We match the texture by sample before it goes on the Westmount 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.

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.

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.

Can you repair a water-stained ceiling in Westmount?

Yes. The Westmount water-stain fix: stain-block seal, board replacement where wet, then tape, mud and matching texture. Insurance claim in Westmount? We supply photos and invoices.
