Level 5 skim coating in North Central Edmonton

When a Level 5 finish is worth it

A Level 5 finish — a full skim coat over the entire surface — is worth it in North Central Edmonton where there is critical light, high-gloss or dark paint, or a feature wall that will show every imperfection. It is the highest drywall finish level and the one that holds up under raking light.

Skimming over existing texture

In North Central Edmonton homes with knockdown on newer streets and stipple on the older ones, we can skim straight over the existing texture to bring a wall or ceiling back to flat, rather than tearing it out. Compared with re-boarding, an North Central Edmonton skim is faster, cleaner and typically cheaper.

Our North Central Edmonton skim coating process, step by step

Prep and the first skim coat

A flat finish in North Central Edmonton starts with prep — we scrape high spots, fill deep damage and prime glossy or porous areas so the skim coat bonds. Next, the North Central Edmonton wall takes its first full skim pass.

Coats, drying and the sand

Most later ridging or cracking traces to skipped drying time between coats. Coats built up as needed, a flat sand, edges feathered past the repair, and a raking-light check — the North Central Edmonton standard. A skim lives or dies by the light — so in North Central Edmonton we finish to the light.
