On smooth walls, texture matching means skim-finishing the repair flush and flat so there is no texture to see at all — see our Level 5 finish page.

Our Kensington texture matching process, step by step

Assessment before application

No Kensington texture gets sprayed before the existing pattern is assessed — spray weight, leaf size, density and compound base all behave differently. Skip this step and the match fails.

Test patch confirmation

We apply a test patch in a low-visibility area of the same room and check it under the room's actual lighting before we touch the visible repair in your Kensington home.

Our Kensington texture matching process, step by step

Study the existing texture

In Kensington 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.

Drywall Texture Matching work we do in Kensington

Matching original stipple and heavy orange peel in 1960s and 1970s Kensington homes

Kensington homes from the 1960s and 1970s have the most varied and demanding texture profiles. Original stipple, layered heavy orange peel and plaster-skim finishes all require careful assessment before any patch can be applied. We assess the texture type before we order materials, match the base compound weight, apply test patches and confirm the match in daylight before we finish the repair.

Renovation blending in Kensington — new board against original heavy texture

When a kitchen is opened up or a wall is removed in an Kensington home from the 1960s and 1970s, new board is introduced against original walls with texture that has 40–60 years of history. We texture match the new board to the surrounding original surface so the transition is invisible under paint.

What affects the cost of texture matching in Kensington?

Texture type, patch count and blend area

The cost of texture matching in Kensington comes down to the texture type, how many patches need matching, and how large the blend area needs to be. We assess and price on site, fixed before we start.

Matching what is already on your Kensington walls

The surfaces here are usually stipple on the older homes and knockdown on the newer ones, and matching a repair into that pattern is exactly the work we do every day.
