Our Inglewood taping and mudding process, step by step

Tape every seam

In Inglewood we tape all seams and corners first, bedding the tape so it does not bubble or crack later.

Coats, drying time and sanding

We apply mud in coats with full drying time between each, sanding flat and feathering the edges well past the seam, then check under raking light before we call it done.

Inglewood drywall in context

About Inglewood

The name Inglewood was used on a 1905 plan of subdivision and is now applied to the neighbourhood.

What we see in Inglewood

In Inglewood 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.

Drywall Taping & Mudding work we do in Inglewood

Renovation additions and wall blending in 1960s and 1970s Inglewood homes

When an Inglewood 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 Inglewood homes from this era are a regular part of our work in Inglewood, Boyle Street, Central McDougall, Dovercourt and the surrounding area.

Basement finishing in Inglewood — taping new board on an older structure

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

What affects the cost of drywall taping and mudding in Inglewood?

Square footage, finish level and corners in Inglewood homes

The cost of taping and mudding in Inglewood comes down to four things: total square footage of board, the finish level (Level 4 standard vs. Level 5 skim, which takes more time and material) in Inglewood, the number of inside and outside corners and archways, and whether the job includes ceilings, bulkheads or vaulted spaces. We measure on site and give you a fixed price before we start — it does not change.

Housing in Inglewood — 2010s and early 2020s

Inglewood is one of Central’s newest communities — most homes are less than ten years old and post-possession Level 4 upgrade calls are the most common taping request we see here.

Taping and mudding work we do in Inglewood

Builder-grade finishing below Level 4 in Inglewood homes

A consistent number of Inglewood homeowners call us after possession. The showhome had flawless walls; the home they bought shows joint ridges in raking light. Builder-grade taping in Inglewood often stops at Level 2 or 3 where Level 4 was expected. We assess the house, prioritize the rooms where it shows most, and bring them to Level 4 — or Level 5 in rooms with large west-facing windows.

Level 5 finishing in Inglewood rooms with raking light

Inglewood homes built in the 2000s and 2010s frequently have large west-facing windows in main living areas. Builder-grade Level 4 shows joint ridges in those rooms under flat or semi-gloss paint. We assess which rooms have the worst exposure and skim them to Level 5 — the difference is visible the first time late-afternoon light comes through the window.

Our Edmonton taping and mudding process, step by step

Tape coat, fill coat, finish coat

Every taping job in Edmonton follows the same disciplined sequence: embed the tape in the first coat over every joint and corner, a wider fill coat once it is dry, then a final finish coat feathered out wide so the joint disappears into the board. Each coat must dry before the next — rushing the coats is what causes cracks and shadows later.

Sanding and checking under light

We sand smooth with dust control, then check every wall and ceiling under raking light before we call it done. Light is what reveals a bad finish, so light is what we finish to. The taping is not done until it looks right under the same light your paint will see.
