Knockdown ceiling removal in Country Hills for a clean modern ceiling

In Country Hills, a knockdown or splatter ceiling ages the room and collects dust and cobwebs ridge by ridge. In Country Hills we remove dated knockdown texture and refinish the ceiling — either skimmed dead-flat to a smooth modern look or re-textured cleanly. Country Hills is a newer NW Calgary community where settling cracks, nail pops and basement finishing are common, so the knockdown work here is usually refresh and resurfacing before a repaint. We cover Country Hills, Brentwood, Charleswood, Collingwood and every Calgary quadrant, 7 days a week.

What affects the cost of knockdown ceiling removal in Country Hills?

Area, finish and condition

The cost in Country Hills depends on the ceiling area, the finish you want (a dead-flat Level 5 takes more skim work than a re-texture), and the condition underneath — cracks or stains found once the texture is off add a little time. We assess on site and price it before we start.

Skim flat vs re-texture in Country Hills

Most homeowners here go flat for a modern look, but we also re-texture cleanly if you prefer. We tell you what each option involves so you can choose for your Country Hills ceiling. Popcorn ceilings are still in place in parts of Country Hills, and anything from that era gets treated carefully until its age is known.

Our Country Hills knockdown removal process, step by step

Mask, protect and scrape

Knockdown removal in Country Hills is messy if it is done wrong, so we mask walls, mask off the room and protect floors first, then scrape the texture cleanly back to the board.

Skim, sand and finish

With the texture off, we repair any cracks or stains, then skim the ceiling flat in coats with full drying time, sand and check under raking light — or apply a clean new texture if that is what you chose. Primed-ready ceiling, clean room — the Country Hills hand-off. A lot of our Country Hills work starts in the basement, where the ceiling has to stay openable for the plumbing above it.

Skim flat or re-texture? What suits your Country Hills ceiling

Flat, modern ceilings

A dead-flat ceiling is the current look and the one most Country Hills homeowners choose when they remove knockdown — it makes a room feel larger and cleaner.

A fresh, consistent texture

If you prefer texture, we can apply a clean knockdown or a lighter finish that is even across the whole ceiling, rather than the dated, heavy splatter that is there now. Both come up here. Stipple ceilings turn up throughout Country Hills, often with several layers from past repairs.
