Stylish texture for walls and ceilings.

At Better Paint LLC, we know that texture can bring walls and ceilings to life. Our Knockdown Texture Finishing service offers a unique way to add subtle visual interest, hide imperfections, and create a professional, upgraded look for any room or property.

This style of drywall texture is popular in both residential and commercial settings, providing a modern finish that stands out — without overwhelming your space.

What Is Knockdown Texture?

Knockdown texture is a drywall finishing technique that involves spraying or applying a thin compound to the surface, letting it partially dry, and then gently flattening the raised peaks with a drywall knife. The result is a mottled, dynamic texture that looks clean and stylish, while still offering a bit of dimension.

Think of it as the perfect middle ground between a flat finish and heavy orange peel or popcorn textures. It softens a room’s appearance, helps mask small flaws, and is ideal for large areas like:

• Living rooms and hallways
• Ceilings with directional lighting
• Bedrooms or offices
• Commercial interiors seeking subtle design

Benefits of Knockdown Texture

✅ Visually Appealing – Adds a modern, professional look to any space
✅ Covers Imperfections – Ideal for hiding patches, seams, and surface flaws
✅ Versatile – Works on ceilings and walls, in both homes and businesses
✅ Paint-Ready – Pairs beautifully with both flat and semi-gloss paints
✅ Durable – Helps protect surfaces from minor wear and tear

Knockdown texture is also easy to clean and maintain, making it a great option for high-traffic areas.
