Level 5 Wall Texture
Level 5 wall texture is entirely smooth, creating a high-end look fit for any upscale home ranging from traditional to modern style. This wall texture feels more refined and luxurious, and it is also the most expensive option because creating a smooth wall texture requires additional labor and skill. Extra skim coats are applied, and more attention must be placed on floating drywall to ensure every wall is even. Since there is very little texture, there is no room for imperfections to hide!
Level 4 Wall Texture
Similar to Level 5, Level 4 wall texture is an expensive finish that doesn’t leave room to conceal imperfections. However, this level requires fewer skim coats than Level 5 and has a very subtle texture to give a slight hint of light and shadow play.
Level 3 Wall Texture
Level 3 wall texture is the most common, durable, and style-neutral option. Because of its affordability and versatile look, builders utilize this texture on everything from Craft Revival to Cottage-style homes. Level 3 has a light but noticeable texture that adds a slight depth to the walls. It hides imperfections well and is easy to paint.
Level 2 Wall Texture
While Level 5 through 3 wall textures coordinate with various architectural designs, Level 2 has a more style-specific feel. Level 2 wall texture resembles a rough plaster or stucco and is a better fit for Southwestern or Mission-style homes. This texture has deeper variations, creating more light and shadow play. Since this texture has a rougher feel, it hides more imperfections in the drywall. However, it can be challenging to paint.
Level 1 Wall Texture
Level 1 wall textures feature a range of plaster patterns from swirls to zigzags. These custom wall finishes are not very common and are typically seen in older homes. While heavy textures effectively hide any imperfections in the walls, they can be challenging to paint and next to impossible to repair if damaged.
