Different Drywall Textures to Consider for your Edmonton Home

If your ceilings and walls are basic and boring, it’s time to take some risks with your interior design and consider adding something new. Besides a bold paint colour, there are other ways you can spice up your walls and ceilings. Handyman Connection, specialists in drywall crack repair in Edmonton, provides drywall texture design to make your space look more unique. For texturing projects, you’ll need to team up with pro contractors who have experience in this intricate design skill.

The Beauty of Your Walls and Ceilings

When it comes to stand-out home design, you may have yet to think about doing something different to your walls or ceilings. Adding wall hangings, paint colours, wallpaper, trim or moulding are the most common transformations to a wall or ceiling. If you want to take your design further, our team of pros can revamp your walls and ceilings with drywall textures. Here are some of the possibilities:

Popcorn Finish

Popcorn ceilings were popular decades ago in homes all around North America. The fad eventually became outdated, so many homeowners searched for contractors who could remove the texture from their ceilings. If you want to recreate this vintage look, you’ll need professional drywall crack repair contractors in Edmonton who can apply this specific type of texture to your ceiling and create the popcorn finish.

Orange Peel Texture

Next, look into putting an orange peel texture on your walls or ceiling if popcorn is too vintage for you. Orange peel texture can help hide uneven walls or other problems with your home’s drywall or structure. Contractors use a special spray technique to get the look of orange peel on your walls and ceilings. There are three types of orange peel looks – fine, medium and heavy.

Skip Trowel Feel

Our pros are also able to use other tools besides a paint sprayer to achieve texture on your walls and ceilings. One option to consider is the skip trowel texture. This texture gives your walls a memorable design, even without colour. We get the look using a trowel and joint compound on your walls. First, we apply some joint compound. Then, we use a trowel to create a skipped texture look that makes your walls more marbled.

Swirl Drywall Look

The last texture you may want to add to your walls or ceiling is the swirl drywall look. This is the most technically tricky texture to achieve. Only the most talented and experienced drywall contractors can create the drywall swirls on your wall. We start with some joint compound and use different tools, such as brushes or sponges, to draw swirls in the mud before it dries. The end result is circular, even swirls all along your wall or ceiling.

Textures and Your Home Design

Adding texture to your home can give your space more definition and visual interest. You can pair your textured walls or ceilings with other unique design pieces, such as furniture in natural materials, sculptures or wall hangings that complement the designs. This way you can get a home that is more uniquely you.
