Level 5 skim coating in Wild Rose

When a Level 5 finish is worth it

A Level 5 finish — a full skim coat over the entire surface — is worth it in Wild Rose 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 Wild Rose homes with stipple ceilings and the occasional skim-over of dated texture, we can skim straight over the existing texture to bring a wall or ceiling back to flat, rather than tearing it out.

What affects the cost of skim coating in Wild Rose?

Surface condition and finish level

The cost of skim coating in Wild Rose 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.

Texture to remove in Wild Rose homes

The surfaces here are usually knockdown on newer streets and stipple on the older ones, and flattening those to a smooth Level 5 is exactly the work we do. We tell you honestly whether a full skim or a spot resurface makes more sense for your Wild Rose walls.
