If there one level above all else or are they all the same?

I mainly do new construction. We try to do all our own work from flat cement work to finishing all the trim. Were also starting to do our own tiling work for floors, kitchen areas, and baths.

I do not do poured walls, brick and mortar work, electrical or plumbing.

masterlevel is my fav,pretty accurate
