The last step of any Varsity reno is paint: new board from wall moves, kitchen changes or basement finishing must prime and blend into the rest. In Varsity we handle the reno drywall and the paint as one job, so the new work disappears into the old. Varsity is an established, sought-after NW Calgary community of 1960s-70s homes and newer infills where plaster, stipple and reno drywall all come up, so the prep here is heavier prep -- patching plaster cracks, skim-coating uneven walls and priming stained or aged surfaces so the new paint reads flat. We cover Varsity, Tuscany, Royal Oak, Rocky Ridge and every Calgary quadrant, 7 days a week.

Popcorn ceilings are still in place in parts of Varsity. Anything from that era is treated as unknown until its age is established, and handled accordingly.
Some Varsity homes are plaster rather than drywall behind the paint, which changes the repair entirely — different backing, different bonding, different failure mode.
