Is knockdown ceiling removal messy?

It can be, but not the way we run a Duggan job: full masking, protection and dust control. We leave your Duggan home clean.

Can you fix cracks while the texture is off in my Duggan home?

Yes — with the knockdown off in Duggan, cracks, nail pops and stains are repaired before the skim, so the finished ceiling is clean and sound.

Can you make the ceiling completely flat?

Yes — we take Duggan ceilings to a flat Level 4 or Level 5 once the texture is off, ready for paint. A fresh, even texture is also an option for Duggan ceilings.

Knockdown Ceiling Removal Duggan

Knockdown ceiling removal in Duggan for a clean modern ceiling

Knockdown and splatter ceilings date a Duggan room and catch dust and cobwebs in every ridge. In Duggan we remove dated knockdown texture and refinish the ceiling — either skimmed dead-flat to a smooth modern look or re-textured cleanly. Duggan is an Whitemud community with a mix of older homes and newer builds, so the knockdown work here is usually refresh and resurfacing before a repaint. We cover Duggan, Aspen Gardens, Bearspaw, Blue Quill and Whitemud, 7 days a week.

Our Duggan knockdown removal process, step by step

Mask, protect and scrape

Knockdown removal in Duggan is messy if it is done wrong, so we mask walls, mask off the room and protect floors first, then scrape the texture cleanly back to the board.

Skim, sand and finish

With the texture off, we repair any cracks or stains, then skim the ceiling flat in coats with full drying time, sand and check under raking light — or apply a clean new texture if that is what you chose. Primed-ready ceiling, clean room — the Duggan hand-off.
