Ceiling Finishing in Kamloops, BC

A ceiling is lit from below by fixtures that sit right against it, which means every ridge, hollow and sanding scuff throws a shadow. Walls get looked at; ceilings get raked. It's the surface where the difference between careful finishing and fast finishing is most obvious.

Ceilings also move. Trusses lift in dry Kamloops winters and settle back, which is what opens the hairline crack you see along the wall-to-ceiling joint in so many local homes. Where that's a risk, we detail the perimeter so the movement has somewhere to go instead of cracking the paint.

Most of our ceiling work is a flat, smooth finish — taped, coated and skimmed so it takes ceiling-white paint without banding. That's the look almost every renovation in town is after now.

We also spray and knock down texture where you want it, and match existing texture when we're patching into an older ceiling. If your ceiling still has popcorn on it, that's a texture removal job first; the smooth finish comes after the scraping and skimming.

Stained or sagging ceiling board after a leak, a row of new pot-light holes, a removed wall that left a scar across the ceiling, or a settlement crack that keeps coming back — all of it is ceiling work we do regularly.

We repair once the source of any water is fixed, blend new compound into the old surface, match the surrounding texture where there is one, and leave the area primer-ready so the paint doesn't flash over the patch.
