Local Details for Port Credit Homes
Port Credit’s lakeside light is beautiful—and unforgiving. Morning sun pouring through large windows can highlight ceiling waves and joint shadows, especially in older bungalows and side-splits just north and east of the marina. Our workflow is designed for occupied homes: we isolate work rooms with plastic containment, protect hardwood and tile from entry to work area, mask vents, and run vacuum-assist sanding to keep dust down while families continue their day. If your ceiling texture has been painted many times, we’ll test first. When scraping risks damage, we use controlled encapsulation followed by a full Level 5 skim so the surface reads flat—even under raking light.
Many Port Credit houses have pot-light upgrades and past patches from electrical or plumbing work. We eliminate telegraphing seams by skimming full fields (not just spot repairs), feathering wide, and checking from windows and corridor sightlines. After inspection, we prime with a stain-blocking system to lock down old water marks or nicotine. You get a uniform, bright, modern ceiling that’s ready for your finish paint (or we can spray the ceiling for you).
Home access and parking off Lakeshore Rd E can be tight—our crews plan material drops to avoid blocking driveways and we keep daily wrap-ups neat so rooms return to use each evening. Communication is simple: a clear written scope before we start, daily photo updates during the job, and a punch-list walk-through before handover. We’re WSIB and liability insured, and every project includes a 3-year workmanship warranty.

How we work in Port Credit homes
- Protect from entry to work area (floor runners/ram board, stairs, and doorways).
- Seal door openings with plastic; mask supply/return vents before sanding.
- Use vacuum-connected sanders (HEPA) and keep windows/doors controlled to avoid dust plumes.
- Test a small spot first. If scraping risks damage, encapsulate texture and proceed to a Level 5 skim.
- Skim full fields, not just patches, so joints don’t telegraph in morning sun or down hallway sightlines.
- Check under raking light from windows and existing fixtures; re-skim where needed before primer.
- Prime with a stain-blocking system if there are past leaks or nicotine; leave a uniform, paint-ready surface.
- Blend around pot-light cutouts and previous repairs so trims sit clean and edges don’t flash.
- Daily tidy: remove debris, sweep/vac pathways, and keep non-work rooms usable.
- Simple comms: written scope before start, photo updates during, walk-through at handover.
FAQ — Port Credit Homes
Will you keep dust out of the rest of the house?
Yes. We seal work rooms, protect floors/stairs, mask vents and use HEPA-connected sanders. Non-work areas remain clean.
Our ceiling has been painted several times—can it still be smooth?
We test first. If scraping risks damage, we encapsulate safely and then Level 5 skim so it reads perfectly flat.
Can you coordinate with an electrician for new pot lights?
Absolutely. We can patch and blend their cutouts so trims sit clean and edges disappear after primer.
How long does a typical main-floor take?
Most main floors are 2–3 days depending on paint layers, height, access, and blending requirements.
