Level 5 skim coating in West Henday 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 West Henday 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 West Henday Edmonton homes with stipple on the older homes and knockdown on the newer ones, we can skim straight over the existing texture to bring a wall or ceiling back to flat, rather than tearing it out.

Our West Henday Edmonton skim coating process, step by step

Prep and the first skim coat

A flat finish in West Henday Edmonton starts with prep — we scrape high spots, fill deep damage and prime glossy or porous areas so the skim coat bonds. Next, the West Henday 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 West Henday Edmonton standard. A skim lives or dies by the light — so in West Henday Edmonton we finish to the light.
