What is a Level 5 finish?

Can you skim over existing texture in my Chappelle Area home?

Yes. In most Chappelle Area homes we can skim straight over stipple ceilings and the occasional skim-over of dated texture to bring the wall or ceiling back to flat, rather than removing it — faster, cleaner and usually better value.

Common skim coating situations in Chappelle Area

Refresh and repaint prep

Most skim coating calls in Chappelle Area come right before a repaint — it is the moment homeowners notice every bump, patch and bit of old texture. We skim the walls flat so the new paint goes onto a clean, even surface and the whole room reads as renovated.

After repairs and renovations

We also skim after drywall repairs, wallpaper removal and renovations — flattening settling cracks, aging stipple and the odd plaster repair and blending new work into old so there is no visible line once it is painted.

What affects the cost of skim coating in Chappelle Area?

Surface condition and finish level

The cost of skim coating in Chappelle Area comes down to the size of the area, the condition of the existing surface (a lightly textured wall takes fewer coats than one with heavy knockdown or old wallpaper glue), and the finish level — a true Level 5 for critical light is more skim work than knocking down a rough patch. We assess on site and give a fixed price before we start.
