The Team Behind Victoria's Most Trusted Drywall Company
Our Story
How Two Tradesmen Built Victoria's Highest-Rated Drywall Team
Finest Finish started in 2014 with a straightforward idea: drywall work in Victoria deserved better.
Dylan and Colten had spent years working in the trades — learning the craft through BCIT, UBC Building Science programs, and hands-on experience across Vancouver and Victoria. What they kept seeing was the same thing: rushed timelines, cut corners, sloppy finishes, and homeowners left dealing with callbacks and repairs that should have never been needed in the first place.
So they built something different. Not just a drywall company — a system. A structured, repeatable process for delivering flawless results on every project, regardless of size or complexity. They hired only journeyman-level tradespeople. They sourced premium Canadian and European materials instead of box-store compounds. They developed proprietary surface preparation methods that go far beyond what the industry considers standard. And they made a commitment that every client would receive the same level of care, communication, and craftsmanship — whether it was a $2,000 patch repair or a $60,000 custom home install.
That system is what Finest Finish is built on. It’s why we’ve earned 93 five-star Google reviews with zero callbacks. It’s why homeowners in Broadmead, Uplands, Oak Bay, and Ten Mile Point call us back for project after project. And it’s why builders across Greater Victoria trust us with their most demanding finishes.
We started in Vancouver. We made Victoria home. And we’ve spent the last decade proving that drywall — done right — changes how your entire home looks and feels.
What Makes Us Different
How Two Tradesmen Built Victoria's Highest-Rated Drywall Team
Most drywall contractors show up, hang board, tape it, and move on. The finish looks fine on day one. Six months later, you see the seams, the cracks, the nail pops, and the imperfections that only appear once the house settles and the light shifts.
We don’t work that way.
Every Finest Finish project follows our proprietary multi-stage finishing system — a structured process developed over a decade of real-world experience in Victoria’s most demanding homes. It includes precision board layout, multi-layer compound application with proper cure times between coats, advanced sanding under controlled lighting, full-surface skim coating when Level 5 is required, and a final inspection that catches what other crews never look for.
Our jobsites are protected with high-performance containment and masking systems. Our crew cleans up at the end of every work day. Our communication is proactive — you’ll always know what’s happening, what’s next, and when we’ll be done. And every project is backed by our exclusive Finest Finish Warranty, custom-discussed with you before work begins.
This is what we mean by white glove service. Not a marketing phrase — an actual operating standard that we hold ourselves to on every single job.
