Why did the last repaint peel?

Most often latex applied over old oil-based paint without a bonding primer. A simple solvent test tells us what is there. It is the single most common cause of a renovation repaint failing.

Can you paint new drywall so it blends with my existing Carlton walls?

Yes — priming new drywall correctly and colour-matching into the existing wall is exactly what we do on Carlton renos.

Can fresh Carlton drywall be painted to disappear into the existing finish?

Yes — priming new drywall correctly and colour-matching into the existing wall is exactly what we do on Albany, Athlone, Baranow renos.

Do painted-over patches and new board blend into Carlton walls?

Yes — priming new drywall correctly and colour-matching into the existing wall is exactly what we do on Carlton renos.

Should you paint before or after the new flooring?

Often both — prime and first coat before flooring and cabinets, final coat after. It costs one extra visit and saves the damage that always happens during install.

Do you stand behind your renovation painting in Carlton?

Yes. We walk the finished Albany, Athlone, Baranow reno with you, and if something is not right we come back and make it right.

Renovation Painting Carlton Edmonton | Post-Reno Paint

Renovation painting in Albany, Athlone, Baranow, blended into the existing home

Paint closes every Carlton renovation — the new drywall around relocated walls, kitchens and basement builds has to be primed and blended in. In Carlton we handle the reno drywall and the paint as one job, so the new work disappears into the old. Carlton is an Northwest community with a mix of older homes and newer builds, so the prep here is prep that ranges from light touch-ups on newer builds to a full patch-and-skim pass on the older homes nearby. We cover Carlton, Albany, Athlone, Baranow and Northwest, 7 days a week.

Ceilings during a partial renovation

The line at the doorway

Painting the ceiling in the renovated Carlton room and not the next one leaves a visible change at the door opening, because the old ceiling has yellowed.

Where to stop

Carry it to a natural break — a doorway, a beam, a change of level. We will point out where those are so the decision is deliberate.
