Selected work
Walls you cango and look at.
Real jobs, photographed on site. No filters.
The test
Finishedto the light.
A light set on the floor and aimed along a wall instead of at it turns every deviation into a shadow. It's harsher than the light you'll live with, which is why we check with it.
Screw rows.
Screw heads set too deep leave dimples in lines across the sheet.
Seams showing.
Compound and paper take paint differently, so a seam can show through as a band.
Found before paint, it's another coat. Found after paint, it's another coat and a repaint.
How we work
Quality is a set of habits,not a word on a van.
Before
A written quote, from the drawings or from the address. Either is enough to price the work.
During
Tell us who's living in the house and which rooms have to stay usable, and we'll set the job up around it.
After
Before we leave, the wall has to pass the light test: light across the surface, harsher than the light you'll live with.

Questions
Worth knowingbefore the first coat.
Do I need a permit?
Often, yes. Surrey usually requires a building permit for interior renovations and basement finishing; some small repairs don't need one. The City's Building Division confirms it for your job.
Could there be asbestos in my walls or ceiling?
It can't be ruled out by looking. Asbestos was used in B.C. building materials for decades, and newer buildings can contain it too. If old mud or ceiling texture is going to be cut or sanded, it gets tested first.
Why does drywall take several visits?
Each coat has to dry before the next one goes on: tape, fill coats, a finish coat, then sanding, then primer. Coating over compound that hasn't dried is one of the ways joints end up showing later.
What's the difference between Level 4 and Level 5?
Level 4 is the usual finish for flat paint. Level 5 adds a thin skim over the whole surface, for smooth walls with shinier or darker paint, or strong light from the side.
Why do joints show after paint?
Usually one of four things: the joint isn't flat; the compound and the paper take paint differently; the primer or paint; or light crossing the wall at a low angle, which shows all of them. It's why our walls are checked under light harsher than the light you'll live with.

Drawings, a material order, or just an address and a rough scope. If it's a repair, a photo of the wall under a light held at an angle tells us more than a paragraph will.
