What Is Skim Coating?

Skim coating is the process of applying a thin layer of joint compound over an entire wall or ceiling surface to create a smooth, uniform finish. It's used to cover texture, hide imperfections, repair water-damaged drywall, or prep old plaster walls for painting. The result is a Level 5 drywall finish — the smoothest, most professional look available.

Skim Coating Process

Our skim coating process starts with proper prep: we tape, prime, and ensure the surface is clean and stable. We apply the first skim coat by hand or with a spray rig depending on the project size, allow it to dry fully, sand it smooth, and apply a second coat if needed. The final surface is sanded to a flawless finish and primed for painting. Most rooms are completed in one day.
