What's the difference between Level 4 and Level 5 finish?

Level 4 is the standard residential finish: three coats over tape, sanded smooth, fine for paint and most textures. Level 5 adds a thin skim coat across the entire surface — required for smooth walls under critical lighting or high-sheen paint. Asking for Level 5 when Level 4 will do is a common way to overpay; asking for Level 4 when you want a smooth-wall look is a common way to be disappointed.

Do I need mold-resistant drywall in Florida?

Bathrooms, laundry rooms, garage walls, and any wall directly behind a tub or shower benefit from mold-resistant (purple/green board) or cement board. It's not legally required in living areas, but in Florida's humidity it's a small upcharge that pays off long-term.

How long does a typical drywall repair take?

Small patch (door knob, leak, accent wall opening): one day of work plus 1–2 days of mud drying time before paint. Full-room replacement: 3–5 days. The drying time is the constraint, not the labor — beware contractors who promise same-day texture and paint over fresh mud.

Hiring a drywall contractor in the Orlando metro area

Hiring a drywall contractor in the Orlando metro area ranges from a small patch after a leak repair to full hang-and-finish on a remodel or addition. The directory below lists active drywall contractors so you can compare and verify.

Drywall finish quality is the single most visible part of any remodel — it's what the paint sits on — so the difference between an experienced finisher and a low-bid crew shows up the first time afternoon sun hits the wall.

How to verify a drywall contractor in Florida

Drywall contractors aren't state-certified by DBPR the way roofers, plumbers, electricians, HVAC, and general contractors are. Instead, verify them at the county level: in Orange County through the Orange County Contractor Licensing Division, in Seminole County through the Seminole County Building Division, and in Osceola County through Osceola County Building. Ask for a current local business tax receipt, a Certificate of Insurance (general liability and workers' comp) listing you as certificate holder, and proof they are registered with the appropriate county.

Always insist on a Certificate of Insurance (COI) emailed directly from the agent to you — not a PDF the contractor hands over — and check that workers' compensation is in force. If a drywall contractor claims a workers' comp exemption, every worker on your property must be either the exempt officer or an employee of a separately insured subcontractor; if someone is injured on your job without coverage, the liability flows back to you as the property owner.

Verify a license at myfloridalicense.com →

Why verifying matters in Florida

Florida law (§ 489.127, F.S.) makes it a third-degree felony to contract without a license on a project valued at $5,000 or more, or any size project during a declared state of emergency. Verifying licensure before you sign a contract is the single most important step you can take to protect your home and your deposit. Central Florida's hurricane season runs June 1 through November 30, and unlicensed storm-chasing crews routinely move through Orange, Seminole, and Osceola counties after a major event. Confirming an active state license — and an in-state business address you can actually drive to — keeps you out of that risk pool. Drywall isn't state-certified, so the burden is on you to confirm insurance and county registration; the workmanship is also fully on the contractor since there's no DBPR complaint process to fall back on.

Questions to ask before you hire

Are you registered as a contractor with the county, and what does your COI cover?
What level of finish are you delivering — Level 3, Level 4, or Level 5? (This dramatically affects how walls look under raked light.)
Is texture (knockdown, orange peel, smooth) included, and will you match my existing texture for repairs?
Are you handling primer, or just bare drywall and joint compound?
How do you contain dust, and who is responsible for the final clean?

Frequently asked questions

What's the difference between Level 4 and Level 5 finish?: Level 4 is the standard residential finish: three coats over tape, sanded smooth, fine for paint and most textures. Level 5 adds a thin skim coat across the entire surface — required for smooth walls under critical lighting or high-sheen paint. Asking for Level 5 when Level 4 will do is a common way to overpay; asking for Level 4 when you want a smooth-wall look is a common way to be disappointed.
