Skip trowel is a hand-applied texture with a Mediterranean feel — thin mud skipped across the surface with a curved trowel. It's hard to fake and easy to ruin, which is why homeowners with skip-trowel walls call a specialist.
Texture is what makes a repair invisible — or obvious. We spray, hand-apply, and match every texture common in East Tennessee homes, from 1960s swirl ceilings to modern smooth walls.
Before committing to a wall, we test the pattern: spray density, mud consistency, knock timing. That's why our patches disappear and our full-room textures look factory-consistent.

Almost always. Older textures vary in density and technique, so we test on a sample area first and adjust until it blends. Matching is a craft — it's why patched walls from other crews often stand out and ours don't.
Yes. After hanging and taping, texture is the final finishing step before primer. New additions, basements, and garages get whichever texture matches the rest of your house.
Orange peel is a fine spray splatter left as-is; knockdown is a heavier splatter flattened with a trowel a few minutes after spraying. Knockdown reads more rustic, orange peel more subtle.
Texture needs to dry fully — usually 24 hours depending on humidity — then it should be primed before paint. We can handle primer and paint, or leave it paint-ready for your painter.
