Basement painting in Sunnyside, from the crew that boards and finishes it

Paint is the last step of a Sunnyside basement build, and it can only be as good as the drywall beneath. In Sunnyside we board, tape and finish the basement, then prime and paint it — the trusted local professionals, start to finish. Sunnyside is an older NW Calgary community where settling cracks, aging texture and the occasional plaster repair come up, so basement projects here are common. We cover Sunnyside, Tuscany, Royal Oak, Rocky Ridge and every Calgary quadrant, 7 days a week.

What affects the cost of basement painting in Sunnyside?

Square footage, layout and new-drywall priming

The cost in Sunnyside depends on total square footage, how many rooms and bulkheads the layout has, and whether the drywall is brand new (which needs a full primer coat before paint holds properly). We measure on site and give a fixed price first.

Basement projects in Sunnyside

We regularly quote basement painting alongside the drywall stage as one combined job. Housing in Sunnyside is mixed, which is why we look before we quote rather than after.

One trusted team, drywall then paint, in Sunnyside

Prime fresh board properly

Unprimed new drywall in Sunnyside drinks paint unevenly — the finish coat shows it as patchiness. Because we board and finish the basement drywall in Sunnyside ourselves, we know exactly when it is dry and ready to prime.

No gap between trades

We move from finishing the drywall straight into priming and painting, without waiting on a separate painter's schedule. Housing in Sunnyside is mixed, which is why we look before we quote rather than after.

Our Sunnyside basement painting process, step by step

Confirm the drywall is ready

Whether we boarded it or another contractor did, we confirm the mud is fully cured before we prime — painting over damp compound is the most common reason a basement paint job fails early.

Prime, then finish

We prime the new surface fully, then apply often three coats to fully cover aged paint, patched plaster and stained sections to walls and ceilings, working room by room in your Sunnyside basement. Housing in Sunnyside is mixed, which is why we look before we quote rather than after.

Common basement painting situations in Sunnyside

In Sunnyside, sunnyside has some of the oldest housing stock we work in, so ceiling and cornice details here can be genuinely unusual — we match what is actually there rather than defaulting to a modern flat finish that would look out of place. Assessed on site, priced up front, and finished properly — every time.
