For Keheewin walls, what separates Level 4 from Level 5?

Level 4 suits most Keheewin walls in eggshell or satin: joints taped, three coats, sanded. For unforgiving Keheewin rooms — raking light, flat paint, open concept — Level 5 skims the entire wall. An Keheewin walkthrough tells you honestly where the upgrade is worth it.

Do you stand behind your taping and mudding in Keheewin?

Yes. We check every Aspen Gardens, Bearspaw, Blue Quill job under raking light before we pack up, and if something is not right we come back and make it right.

How many mud coats does an Keheewin wall get?

Typically three coats — tape coat, fill coat and finish coat — with full drying time between each, more for a Level 5 skim in your Keheewin home.

Is the Keheewin finish paint-ready when you leave?

Yes. We sand flat, clean the dust and walk every Keheewin job with you before we pack out. Your painter can start the next day. We make an Keheewin job right if it is not — on us.

Do you stand behind your taping and mudding in Keheewin?

Yes. We check every Keheewin job under raking light before we pack up, and if something is not right we come back and make it right.

What is the difference between a Level 4 and Level 5 finish?

A Level 4 finish is three coats over taped joints and fasteners, sanded smooth — right for most walls in standard paint sheens. A Level 5 finish adds a full skim coat over the entire surface for a flawless look under glossy paint, raking light and on flat ceilings. We recommend the level your job actually needs.

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.

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