This project involved repairing cracks in plaster finish. The cracks were all gouged out down to lath, covered with mesh tape and 3 coats of Sheetrock 90 applied. Finally, a complete paint job. Smooth walls for many more years!
Painting this Logo was a lot of fun. We started out by patching the holes, and then priming the entire wall grey, in order to give the final color a solid basecoat. The wall was then painted red with an eggshell finish. Once it was dry, we taped out the logo and used the same color but different sheen, hence the reason it is hard to see if the light/angle isn’t right. Amazing working with Francessca at the United Way. This was her idea, and it turned out amazing!!
This is an unusual project in which we built a wall with no horizon. It is called a cyclorama wall and is generally used by photographers to eliminate horizon lines. This is achieved by creating a curve in the wall where it meets the floor and where it turns 90 degrees. This required an extreme amount of ingenuity and patience to get the floor and wall to meet up smoothly. Once the framing was in place, it was sheeted with multiple layers of 1/4″ plywood and then plastered with 4 coats. The finished look is a seamless wall with no edges.
On this project, we were asked to do a custom shower pan and curb, waterproofed walls and the entire project tiled complete with Fleurco shower doors.
To start we leveled the floor underneath the shower tray. Starting with a level surface is key to a good install through all stages. Next we installed a Schluter shower tray/drain and customized it to our situation. We added our custom curb and then waterproofed everything with Schluter Kerdi.
The next stage was to tile the entire bathroom including the shower stall. This was done using 12×24, 12×12 and 1×2 tile porcelain tiles with rectified edges. After applying grout, the whole project was sealed. We then we installed 12mm glass, neo angle shower doors from Fleurco. All seams, edges and plumbing fixtures were siliconed.
