Premium, ultra-smooth wall finish

At Better Paint LLC, we believe that details matter. That’s why we offer the Smooth-Level Five Finish — the highest standard in drywall finishing for walls and ceilings. This service is ideal for clients who expect flawless, mirror-smooth surfaces that hold up to even the harshest lighting conditions.

What Is a Level Five Finish?

Drywall finishing is rated on a scale from Level 0 to Level 5. A Level Five Finish is the most refined option available. It includes all the steps of lower levels (taping, mudding, and sanding), but adds an important final touch: a thin skim coat applied over the entire surface.

This final skim coat eliminates all visible seams, texture inconsistencies, and paper differences. When completed properly, it delivers a surface that’s uniform, ultra-smooth, and completely free of imperfections — even under direct or angled lighting.

Where Is a Smooth-Level Five Finish Used?

This high-end finish is highly recommended for spaces where walls and ceilings are on full display, such as:

  • Living rooms with large windows or skylights
  • Homes with modern or minimalist interior design
  • Offices, showrooms, or commercial interiors
  • Hallways or stairwells with directional or overhead lighting
  • Any space where sheen or reflective paints will be applied

If you want a premium, gallery-quality look, Level 5 is the standard you need.
