Knockdown Ceiling Removal University of Alberta Edmonton

Textured ceilings in University of Alberta, scraped or skimmed to smooth

Knockdown and splatter ceilings date an University of Alberta room and catch dust and cobwebs in every ridge. In University of Alberta we remove dated knockdown texture and refinish the ceiling — either skimmed dead-flat to a smooth modern look or re-textured cleanly. University of Alberta is one of Scona's newer communities, where fresh installation and first-year settling work are common, so the knockdown work here is usually refresh and resurfacing before a repaint. We cover University of Alberta, Allendale, Argyll, Belgravia and Scona, 7 days a week.

Knockdown Ceiling Removal University of Alberta Edmonton: your questions answered

Will the pot lights and vents still line up afterwards?

Yes. Fixtures, vents and the wall junction are the details that make a re-finished ceiling look original, so they are cut in and detailed rather than skimmed around. It is the part that separates a flat ceiling from a finished one.

Can you fix cracks while the texture is off in my University of Alberta home?

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

Do you remove knockdown ceilings in University of Alberta?

Yes — University of Alberta is part of our regular service area and we are usually booked within the week. We also cover Allendale, Argyll, Belgravia and Scona.

Can you remove knockdown from a ceiling that has already been painted?

Usually by skimming rather than scraping. Paint seals the texture so it no longer softens and releases, and scraping a painted ceiling tends to tear the paper face off the board. Skimming over it avoids that damage.

Can I stay in the house?

Yes, with containment. The room itself is out of use while it is worked, and despite sealing, some fine dust will find its way past. We will not promise a dust-free ceiling scrape.

Should the texture be scraped off or skimmed over?

It depends on whether it releases. We wet and scrape a test patch in University of Alberta first: if it softens cleanly, scraping gives the flattest result; if it has been painted it will not soften, and scraping tears the board face. Then skimming is the better ceiling.
