What types of homes do you paint in Sherwood Park?
iPaint Painting works on every style of home found across Sherwood Park, from 1970s bungalows in Mills Haven with textured ceilings and wood panelling, to 1980s split-levels in Nottingham and Brentwood, 1990s executive homes in Broadmoor Estates, 2000s newer builds in Lakeland Ridge and Summerside Estates, and 2010s modern construction in Emerald Hills. Each era of Sherwood Park housing presents unique preparation and product requirements that our crew understands thoroughly.
1970s and 1980s Homes: Mills Haven, Brentwood, Nottingham
Sherwood Park's oldest neighbourhoods were built during the community's initial growth period. These homes typically feature textured (stipple or knockdown) ceilings, wood panelling in basements and family rooms, and wallpapered accent walls. Many have plaster walls rather than modern drywall, which requires different preparation techniques.
Our crew handles the specific challenges these homes present: removing or skim-coating wallpaper, repairing plaster cracks and nail pops, priming bare wood panelling for a smooth painted finish, and smoothing or replacing textured ceilings when homeowners want a more modern look. We also check for and properly encapsulate any lead-based paint found in pre-1978 construction.
1990s Executive Homes: Broadmoor Estates
The 1990s brought larger floor plans, vaulted ceilings, and more complex trim packages to Sherwood Park. Homes in Broadmoor Estates and the Estates of Sherwood Park often feature two-storey foyers, extensive crown moulding, and custom-stained woodwork. These homes require scaffolding for high walls, careful masking of detailed trim, and a painter's steady hand for cutting clean lines around ornate millwork.
Cabinet refinishing is particularly popular in these homes, as original 1990s oak cabinets can be updated with a modern painted or stained finish for a fraction of the cost of full replacement.
2000s Family Homes: Lakeland Ridge, Summerside Estates
Sherwood Park expanded significantly in the 2000s with family-oriented developments. These homes feature open-concept main floors, finished basements, and attached garages. The most common painting projects in these neighbourhoods include full interior repaints (often updating builder-grade beige to contemporary greys and whites), cabinet painting in kitchens, and epoxy garage floors.
Wall preparation is usually straightforward in 2000s builds because drywall quality is generally consistent. The main consideration is managing colour transitions in open floor plans where living, dining, and kitchen spaces flow together without walls to create natural paint breaks.
2010s Modern Construction: Emerald Hills, Heritage Hills
The newest Sherwood Park developments feature 9-foot ceilings, large windows, and clean architectural lines. These homes often come with builder-grade flat paint that shows every scuff and fingerprint within a few years. Upgrading to a premium eggshell or satin finish (we recommend Benjamin Moore Regal Select or Sherwin-Williams Emerald) dramatically improves durability and washability.
Exterior painting on newer Sherwood Park homes typically involves hardie board or composite siding that holds paint exceptionally well when properly primed. Our crew ensures every exterior project is completed during optimal weather conditions for maximum paint adhesion and longevity.
