attic conversion, T&M project

Huck | Posted in Photo Gallery on

Just found a cd with photos from an old job, didn’t even realize I had taken pics.  Attic conversion, t&m project, did all the work solo.  Owner hired out ductwork and registers, did electrical/electronics relocating of wires himself.  I did the framing, insulation, and sheetrock myself (used a rented sheetrock lift).

            Very creative mudwork! I like the effect. I have a client who would pay for that look...Steve

            What is skip-trowel?

            Its when the texture is applied with a wide trowel (I use topping, thinned to mayonnaise consistency - it goes on intermittently, hence the name), then knocked flat the same as a sprayed knock-down.  Looks pretty much like hand trowelled plaster when its painted.View Image â€œGood work costs much more than poor imitation or factory product” – Charles GreeneCaliforniaRemodelingContractor.com

            Thanks. I would like to see that done in person sometime. I'm a smoothwall man myself, but I do have clients who like that kind of thing.Steve

            The way I like to do it, its pretty subtle.  Once painted, the wall looks smooth, only with a strong sidelight can you detect any texture.  The texture in the closeup photo is exaggerated.View Image â€œGood work costs much more than poor imitation or factory product” – Charles GreeneCaliforniaRemodelingContractor.com

             Skip trowel is so common in Ca., I am always surprised when someone is not familiar with it.

             Spent many childhood hours looking at the patterns of the ceiling in my bedroom. Kind of like watching clouds.

             Man, maybe that's why I ended up in drywall.... damn it!                            Mike
