The drywall finishing cost for your project will depend on some questions: First we would ask you for some pictures of your project just so we can get an eye view and then we can discuss a little more in detail like: what type of finishing would you like done? (Level 4 smooth | Level 5 smooth | Texture finishing etc.. These are just some of the questions we ask before we can give you an 100% accurate estimate.
We would say 90% of the time we do not need to come out and give you an estimate. Drywall Fam has many years in estimating right over the phone or through text.
Level 0: Level 0 implies that no finishing of any type has been done. At this level, drywall is simply fastened to the walls or ceiling.
Level 1: This level means that drywall joint tape has been embedded in joint compound, but nothing further has been done.
Level 2: This next level means that you have skimmed a thin coat of joint compound over the tape and covered the drywall screw holes. You can stop at this level if you intend to cover the wall surface with tile, or if it’s in a garage intended to be used for storage or a workshop-type space.
Level 3: At this stage, finishers apply a coat of joint compound to the tape and screws. Walls that will receive a heavy texture, such as knockdown texture, can end at this level. It would be pointless to progress beyond this level since texturing will produce a finish that is rougher than level 3.
Level 4: This is the classic drywall finish. Here, you apply another coat of joint compound to the tape and screws and sand the dried compound. This is the level that typically is used when a wall surface will be painted or covered with wallpaper.
Level 5: This highest possible level of drywall finishing involves applying a skim coat, if applicable.
Level 5 drywall finishing is necessary when natural light or accent lighting will make imperfections visible. It’s also applied before painting drywall with flat, semi-glossy or glossy paints since they have a tendency of exposing any imperfection under the skin of paint.
We offer knockdown texture, skip trowel texture. orange peel texture, level 4 smooth finish, Level 5 smooth finish, Splatter.
Absolutely, This process is called “Skim Coating”. What we do is skim all of the textured walls with drywall compound and make your walls to a level 4 smooth or if you would like a re-texture that’s fine to.
