Q: Can I repair plaster myself?

• <div><p>While it is possible to repair minor plaster cracks or holes yourself, it is generally not recommended for larger jobs or if you want a professional result.

Q: How do I know if I have plaster walls?

• <div><p>If your home was built before the 1940s and was not remodeled in the past 50 or so years, you probably have plaster walls. Aside from assuming, there are some <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-tell-drywall-vs-plaster.htm">practical ways to tell if you have plaster walls</a>, including the following: If you knock on the wall and it feels solid, not hollow, if you can&rsquo;t insert a thumbtack easily, if there are cracks that look like spiderwebs, or if your home has curved, arched, or swirled walls, doorways, or window openings.</p><p>If you have an unfinished basement or attic, you could examine the backs of any finished walls to check, too.</p></div>

Q: How do pros address common wall issues like cracks or bulging?

• <div><p>Professionals diagnose underlying causes, such as structural shifts or moisture problems, and apply appropriate solutions like reinforcement, patching, or sealing. These measures restore wall integrity and prevent recurrence, ensuring long-term stability.</p></div>

Q: Do you sand plaster wet or dry?

• <div><p>While it&rsquo;s most common to sand plaster dry, it is possible to wet-sand plaster, too. Doing so can reduce the amount of plaster dust released into the air and make it easier to work in smaller, more delicate areas (such as around wall trim). However, some people find that wet sanding leads to more imperfections, which is why larger walls are more often dry sanded to ensure an even finish.</p></div>
