We tape and mud Carter Crest walls to read as a single surface

Carter Crest homes from the late 1980s and 1990s were finished to Level 4 at build. After 25-35 years, raking light in repainted rooms sometimes reveals ridge lines that were always there.

Renovation additions and wall blending in 1960s and 1970s Carter Crest homes

When an Carter Crest homeowner opens up a wall or adds a room to a home built in the 1960s and 1970s, the new board sits against original plaster or drywall. We tape the seam, feather wide and match the existing finish so there is no visible transition between old and new. Reno additions in Carter Crest homes from this era are a regular part of our work in Carter Crest, Aspen Gardens, Bearspaw, Blue Quill and the surrounding area.

Basement finishing in Carter Crest — taping new board on an older structure

Unfinished or partially finished basements in Carter Crest homes from the 1960s and 1970s often have board up but never taped. We tape everything from scratch to Level 4 and leave every Carter Crest basement finish paint-ready and consistent from floor to ceiling.

Level 4 vs Level 5 drywall finish in Edmonton

When Level 4 is the right call

Level 4 is the standard residential finish and the right choice for most Edmonton homes — bedrooms, hallways and living spaces painted in standard sheens. It is a clean, smooth, paint-ready surface at the best value.

When Level 5 is worth it

Level 5 is a full skim coat over the Level 4, worth it where imperfections would otherwise show: large windows and raking light, glossy or dark paint, feature walls and flat ceilings. For a full breakdown, see our Level 4 vs Level 5 drywall finish guide.
