"Valles is A Plastering. Joaquin and crew are hardworking and honest. Didn’t have to worry about anything going missing or being overcharged. (They bring their own porta- potty, so no workmen need to come in the house) They want to do things right and are very versatile at fixing things they come across that need fixed. My house is very old, so there were things like dry rot, termite damage, drainage issues and several other things that needed addressed and were. Stucco work is excellent. Very capable. Very professional. Paid attention to detail and cleaned up after themselves every day. Really appreciated that. Feels like I have a brand new house that is so beautiful and looks like I had imagined it would. My neighbors really like it too."

"I am remodeling my bathroom and needed drywall and texturing done. I contacted ZVN for an estimate and Zefe was here the next day. We went over the project, agreed on a competitive cost and ZVN shortly started the work. Zefe completed the work within a few days and made sure that the project matched my expectations. The replaced drywall matched perfect and the texturing of the entire bathroom made the room look brand new as if it had originally been built that way. Zefe strives for the customers’ satisfaction and is easy to work with. His many years of experience were evident in the completed project. ZVN was always responsive and completed the project on time as estimated."

"Workers showed up on time (actually early) and began work quickly. Immediately remedied incorrect work performed as a result of a miscommunication without question. Protected my home from damage while work was being performed. Accurately communicated additional work to be performed when problems were discovered. Finished all work in the timeframe promised, cleaned up properly and completed all patchwork to my satisfaction. The owner, Art, is friendly, professional and quoted a fair price. I will definitely recommend REPIPE PRO to my family and friends."

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

Plaster repair costs range from $4 to $10 per square foot for refinishing, while skim coating can be less expensive, usually between $2 and $5 per square foot. The price you pay for plaster repairs will depend on the extent of the damage, the type of plaster you have on your walls, and the accessibility of the damage. Plaster repair on the exterior of your home tends to be more expensive, as there’s a higher chance that ladders or scaffolding will be necessary to carry out the repair.

Like many other repair projects, the cost to fix a behind-the-wall shower leak depends on several factors. The cost of your repair may depend on the type of leak (from a clog or burst pipe), type of piping, and location of the leak. The extent of the issue and how difficult it is to access the pipes can greatly impact and increase your price. On average, you can expect to pay around $150 to $600 to repair a leaking shower.

Common causes include water leaks, settling, and impact. Address underlying issues to prevent recurring damage.

Installing or repairing plaster on ceilings differs slightly from performing the same motions on a wall. You’ll apply slightly less plaster to lower the overall weight of the ceiling. Wall texturing is common, whereas most ceilings are smooth plaster. Tough coat plaster is strong, meaning you can use less while retaining a solid surface.

Yes, you can install drywall over plaster, but there are important factors to consider. While it can create a smooth, flat surface, it is often not the best approach. Installing drywall over plaster will increase the wall's thickness, which can cause issues with existing window and door frames that may no longer fit. You might also need to adjust power outlets to keep them accessible. A better, though more expensive, option is to remove the old plaster and lath entirely before installing new drywall. Drywalling directly over plaster seals in the old material, and if any problems arise later, you will need to remove both layers down to the structural beams for repairs. Given the potential complications, this job is best handled by professionals.
