"We own a 2-story geodesic dome and it had developed a few cracks along the tape seams on some of the ceiling panels. Jose and Rudy did a fantastic job in repairing these. A pair of the cracks could only be reached by setting up scaffolding, which they did during the first day. Jose noticed that some of the cracking had been caused by drywall panels that had been nailed in place dropping down somewhat over 40 years. He corrected that by reanchoring with screws and then applied setting compound, tape and orange peel surface texture that could handle the slight angles of the geodesic ceiling. Jose and Rudy then did a great job of taking down the scaffolding and the protective sheeting and completely cleaning up the work area. On the second day, Jose came back and finished the project by applying primer and two coats of paint to the repaired ceiling areas. Everything matched perfectly and we are very happy with the results."

"Great company to work with. Excellent knowledge of materials and applications. Skilled labor that will give you a beautiful end result. Always on time(earlier than the arrived time). They take there time to set up plastic and ram board to protect all the finish surfaces in the house. You can find a cheaper guy buy you’ll pay more to get Mr Guerras Lathing and Plastering to fix the other guys work!!!! Highly recommend Guerras Lathing and Plastering for all small or big projects. Just awesome work will be booking him for my other three projects!!!"

"Alex was professional and did an excellent job. He was timely and showed great skill within his drywall finish work. I was in a bind as I needed someone immediately to remove the old, so my AC installer could get a split system into my attic, Alex showed up to give a quote and actually did the removal portion of the job that same day. When I called him to schedule when he would return, he responded immediately and showed up when promised. Like I said, I am extremely happy with his work. Thank you Alex"

"Overall the project went smoothly, the vendor was very receptive to change orders.  Works with a small crew which took the project over a month to complete from baseboard to ceiling. Multiple walks were performed to address all remaining punchlist items. Overall it was a good experience with this vendor, be make communication is clear and concise of what the job fully entails.  "

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Only use spackle on plaster walls when the imperfection is small. It’s best used for nail holes or small dings in the plaster. Spackle dries quickly, allowing you to continue the repair process shortly after using it. Plaster can be tricky to repair, though, so if you run into issues, call a pro so that you don’t risk further damage.

Wet-sanding and dry-sanding each have pros and cons. Dry-sanding is less messy, so it’s a good option if you’re trying to minimize dust (for example, if you’re sanding an occupied home or working with particularly dry or dusty drywall mud). However, dry-sanding is quicker because you don’t have to keep rinsing a sponge or wait for it to dry before painting.

Yes, you can speed up the time it takes for plaster to dry, but it's important to do so carefully to avoid issues like cracking or crumbling. Proper ventilation is key; open a window or use a fan to circulate air in the room. Heat can also accelerate drying, but be cautious, as too much heat can cause the plaster to dry too quickly and crack. Check the plaster's packaging for the recommended drying temperature and set the room's thermostat accordingly. While managing humidity is important, avoid using a dehumidifier, which can remove moisture too aggressively and result in crumbly plaster.

The person’s skill will affect how many drywall sheets they can hang in one day. Some people can hang 10 or more sheets in a day, while others may only hang six or seven sheets. It also depends on the framing complexity since custom cutting and fitting the drywall can prolong the process.

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 practical ways to tell if you have plaster walls, including the following: If you knock on the wall and it feels solid, not hollow, if you can’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.

If you have an unfinished basement or attic, you could examine the backs of any finished walls to check, too.
