Renovation Painting Mactaggart Edmonton | Post-Reno Paint

Painting new board into an existing Mactaggart room

Paint closes every Mactaggart renovation — the new drywall around relocated walls, kitchens and basement builds has to be primed and blended in. In Mactaggart we handle the reno drywall and the paint as one job, so the new work disappears into the old. Mactaggart is an older Whitemud 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 Mactaggart, Aspen Gardens, Bearspaw, Blue Quill and Whitemud, 7 days a week.

Small repairs that turn into whole walls

Being straight about it

A client asks for a patch to be painted and reasonably expects it to vanish. On a wall with any age, it will not — the surrounding paint has changed.

How we quote

We price wall-to-wall where that is what it will actually take, and say why. It is a larger number and it is the one that produces the result the client is picturing.

Common renovation painting situations in Mactaggart in Edmonton

The MacTaggart neighbourhood takes its name from Sandy Auld Mactaggart, a local entrepreneur and philanthropist with provincial, national and international achievements in business, the arts, and education. Across roughly 1,005 homes here, the drywall work is first-year settling, basement dev for first owners, Level 5 over builder-grade.

Matching an existing colour

Scanning is a starting point, not an answer

A colour scan from a chip off a Mactaggart wall reads the aged, faded, possibly smoke-affected version of the original — not what it was.

What actually works

Matching then painting the whole wall to a natural break. Matching a colour and spot-painting the middle of a wall almost never disappears, however good the match.

Dust from the renovation itself

Paint traps whatever is on the wall

A Mactaggart renovation generates fine dust that settles everywhere, including on surfaces about to be painted.

Before we open a tin

Surfaces get wiped down, not just visually checked. Painting over settled drywall dust gives a gritty finish that cannot be fixed without sanding it back.
