Why can I see faint bands at the joints?

Under strong raking light, paint sits differently on compound than on board paper. That is a lighting issue rather than workmanship, and the answer is Level 5 on that specific wall — which is a conversation better had at the quote.

How do I check the finish is right?

Look along the wall with a light rather than at it. Joints should not stand proud, fastener rows should not dimple, corners should run straight, and there should be no sanding scratches or paper burn.

What does Level 4 include?

Tape embedded plus two separate coats over all joints and internal angles, three coats over fastener heads and bead, then sanded smooth. It is the normal standard for a painted Lago Lindo wall and right for most of a house.

What is a Level 4 drywall finish?

A Level 4 finish is the industry-standard residential finish in Lago Lindo — taped joints, three compound coats over seams and fasteners, sanded smooth for flat or eggshell paint.

Where Level 4 finishing comes up in Albany, Athlone, Baranow homes

Level 4 finishing here usually means blending new work into existing walls that may have older, less consistent joints.

Internal corners

Two planes meeting

Internal angles move more than flat joints because two surfaces meet at them, and they are also awkward to coat.

How they are finished

Tape folded and bedded, then each side coated separately rather than trying to do both at once. A corner coated in one pass looks acceptable wet and shows a wandering line once the Lago Lindo room is painted.
