Renovation Painting Kensington Edmonton | Post-Reno Paint

Renovation painting in Kensington, blended into the old wall

Every Kensington reno finishes at the paint stage: moved walls, new kitchen layouts and finished basements all carry fresh board needing primer and blended paint. In Kensington we handle the reno drywall and the paint as one job, so the new work disappears into the old. Kensington is an older Northwest community where settling cracks, aging texture and the occasional plaster repair come up, so the prep here is heavier prep -- patching plaster cracks, skim-coating uneven walls and priming stained or aged surfaces so the new paint reads flat. We cover Kensington, Albany, Athlone, Baranow and Northwest, 7 days a week.

Our Kensington renovation painting process in Edmonton, step by step

Prime new drywall properly

New drywall in Kensington needs a full primer coat before finish paint — skipping it leaves flashing (patchy sheen) where old and new paint meet.

Blend and finish

We colour-match into existing walls where the reno only touched part of a room, or fully repaint where the scope calls for a clean break from the old colour.

What affects the cost of renovation painting in Kensington in Edmonton?

Scope and blending

The cost in Kensington tracks the scope — a single patched wall, a full room, or a whole-home repaint — plus how much new drywall needs priming versus existing wall that just needs a fresh coat. We price off the reno scope on site.

Basement and kitchen renos in Kensington

Basement development and kitchen/bath renovations are common here, and painting is usually the final stage we quote alongside the drywall.
