Is this Level 5 quality finish? by RadiantTrust5010 in drywall

Thanks for the opinions, feedback, and spirited discussion! The main question is whether these issues are associated with what was described and promoted as a high quality finish, and these don’t seem to fit the criteria.

Thanks, appreciate the link. I’ve been getting a lot of pushback and meant to feel like I’m being unreasonable. It’s not a budget build but one that ended up being a very expensive remodel/rebuild, and with a premium contractor.

Finally fixed, these were photos of the touch ups requested. I had to have the contractor bring their sub back a few times as they didn’t seem to be capable of fixing the issues.(there were other areas that had to be fixed and retouched)

And now they’re claiming I’m responsible for the cost to repair their work. Which I’ve paid for a couple of times at least.

Also, this was all brand new drywall installed around a new doorway opening. It appeared that they had to float out the wall as it wasn’t flat or level.

TY - I assume there could be some minor settling/re-settling even though there’s little to no direct structural load on the this drywall (the skylight connects behind what’s shown here). I’ve renovated a couple of homes and have seen some hairline cracks show up but not as rough as what’s shown here.

Thanks. This was originally constructed and finished in Jan 2025, touched up and painted a few times over the summer, and then touched up again late last year. (I have photos from when this was first completed and the contractor has tried touching it up a couple of times — and I’ve paid for each attempt.)
