Pleasant

Lisa's house in Mount Pleasant was built in 1910. We redid the drywall and finished her ceiling before any colour went on, and that order is how we paint this neighbourhood.

Older Walls Come First in Mount Pleasant

Mount Pleasant got its name in 1888, the same year a brewery opened on Brewery Creek, and streetcars reached it in 1890. The City's heritage list counts 206 heritage buildings here. Houses that old have had a century of settling, patching and repainting before we ever see them.

Lisa hired us to redo the drywall in her 1910 home and finish the ceiling. In her Google review she said we showed up on time, finished the ceiling on budget and that her Mt Pleasant home looks wonderful. That job is the pattern here. Fix the surface, then paint it.

We do wall and ceiling repairs, interior painting and exterior painting from Cambie Street over to Clark Drive. Across Clark we also paint Commercial Drive, and across Cambie, Fairview.

What We Find Here

What an Old Mount Pleasant House Asks For

A colour change in a house this age is the easy part. The hours go into what is under the old paint.

  • Ceilings with a history.Hairline cracks, old patches and water marks show up the moment fresh paint goes on. We repair and prime them first, the same order we used to finish Lisa's ceiling.
  • Drywall that has been opened up.Plumbing and wiring updates leave cut-outs and uneven patches. We rebuild those spots so the wall reads as one flat surface.
  • Trim under many coats.Door and window casings in old houses carry layer after layer of paint. Failing edges get scraped and sanded back so the new coat lies down flat.
  • Condos along Cambie.Olympic Village station sits at Cambie and 2nd, and Broadway-City Hall at Cambie and Broadway. A condo job there is about sharp lines, building rules and clean floors at the end of the day.

Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you fix the ceiling and paint the room in one booking? +
Yes. We repair, prime and paint with the same crew. That is how Lisa's 1910 Mount Pleasant ceiling was done.
Should old cracked plaster be repaired or replaced? +
Most cracks repair well. If a section is too far gone to hold paint, we'll say so when we look at it and price the fix.
Do you paint the condos around Broadway and Cambie? +
Yes. We follow the building rules, book the elevator where the building asks for it, and cover floors and furniture before we start.
Which parts of Mount Pleasant do you cover? +
All of it, from Cambie to Clark and from 2nd Avenue up to 16th and Kingsway, on both sides of Main.
How do you price a Mount Pleasant job? +
After we see it. The size of the job, the state of the walls and the repair they need set the number. Quotes are free.
What kind of paint do you use? +
Eco-friendly paints. If someone at home is sensitive to smell, tell us and we'll plan the order of the rooms around it.
Do you paint house exteriors here too? +
Yes. We scrape, prime and caulk before the topcoats, on wood and stucco, and we book exteriors for dry weather.
What happens to the mess? +
Floors and furniture get covered before we start, and we clean up at the end of the job.
Do you also work in Fairview and Commercial Drive? +
Yes. Fairview is across Cambie and Commercial Drive is past Clark. Our full list of areas has the rest.
