Drywall texture matching in Kensington, patch invisible under paint

An Kensington repair without a texture match draws more attention than the damage did — a flat patch on a stippled wall shows under any light. In Kensington we match texture into repairs so the fix reads as part of the original surface. Kensington is this established Northwest community where reno, repair and ceiling drywall are common, so the texture work here usually means matching knockdown on newer streets and stipple on the older ones. We cover Kensington, Albany, Athlone, Baranow and Northwest, 7 days a week.

Our Kensington texture matching process, step by step

Study the existing texture

In Albany, Athlone, Baranow we study the existing pattern, density and depth before we touch a repair, because guessing at the match is what causes a visible patch.

Test, blend and feather

We test the texture on a scrap or hidden area first, then apply it feathered well past the repair edge so there is no hard line, checking the blend under raking light.

Sample boards before the wall

Practice off the wall

Mix consistency, spray pressure, nozzle and timing all change the result, and the only way to know is to make one.

Why it is worth the extra hour

A test board held against the existing Kensington surface in the room's own light settles the match before anything is committed. Adjusting on a sample costs a scrape; adjusting on the wall costs the wall.

Texture types we match in Kensington

Knockdown, stipple and orange peel

The most common textures in Kensington homes are knockdown on newer streets and stipple on the older ones, and we match all of them by hand and by tool to reproduce the original pattern.
