Do Larkspur repairs get taped and mudded too?

Yes — taped, mudded and blended, Larkspur repairs read as original wall.

How long does drywall taping and mudding take in Larkspur?

Mud needs proper drying time between coats, so most Larkspur rooms run two to four days depending on size, finish level and humidity. We give Larkspur homeowners a realistic timeline at the on-site quote — not an optimistic one.

Do you skim coat over old texture or after wallpaper removal?

Yes — we skim-coat walls and ceilings flat over old stipple and texture, and after wallpaper removal. It is one of the most common ways Edmonton homeowners modernize a dated room to a smooth, paintable finish.

Do you do taping and mudding in Larkspur?

Yes — Larkspur is part of our regular service area, and we are usually booked within the week. We also cover Bisset, Crawford Plains, Daly Grove and Mill Woods and Meadows.

Will the Larkspur walls be paint-ready when you are done?
