A drywall tool brand with knives, mud pans, corner tools and finishing equipment used by professional crews.
Level 5 Tools makes drywall hand tools such as taping knives, mud pans, corner tools and finishing equipment. These tools help crews apply and smooth compound for flat, high-quality walls. The name echoes the highest standard of drywall finishing, in which the whole wall is skim coated for a very smooth surface that suits glossy paint and raking light. In Nashville, many high-end projects ask for that look, particularly in modern homes and feature walls.
We are an independent contractor and use professional tools that fit each task. For smooth finishes, we use wide knives, clean pans and corner tools, applying thin coats and sanding between them. We recommend finish levels based on paint sheen and light, so you only pay for the smoothness your room needs. We check walls with a work light before priming.
