About Athlone

Named in honour of the Earl of Athlone, Canada's Governor-General from 1940-46, Athlone is located north of the Canadian National Rail line.

What we see in Athlone

In Athlone the drywall work is plaster and lath repair, popcorn and stipple ceiling removal, careful patching into original surfaces. We confirm what your home actually needs on site, in writing, before anything starts.

Our Athlone process, step by step

Scrape, skim and let it dry

We mask the room, scrape the texture to bare drywall, repair any cracks, skim coat and let it fully dry before sanding flat — skipping drying time is why some skim jobs crack.

Prime, then paint

Once sanded flat, we prime the fresh skim coat with the correct primer, then paint two to three coats depending on the colour change and wall condition to a clean, even ceiling in your Athlone home.

What affects the cost of popcorn removal and painting in Albany, Baranow, Baturyn?

Ceiling area, height and coverage

The cost in Albany, Baranow, Baturyn depends on the total ceiling area, ceiling height (vaulted ceilings take more setup), and how many coats full coverage needs over the new skim coat. We assess on site and price the whole job before we start.

Pre-1990 ceilings
