"Ed quickly responded to my project request and setup an appointment to see what I needed. We had to change the color of stucco on an exterior landscape wall and paint the wall caps. Ed made sure that we were happy with the new stucco color (fog coat) and painting of the wall caps. He also fixed a couple of exterior shutters that were coming off the wall. Overall excellent job and I highly recommend Guzman Plastering."

"Zohar and his team of specialist people did a complete remodeling of the kitchen including two bathrooms. The remodeling included all the custom cabinets for the kitchen and raising the ceiling in the kitchen by 10 inches, installing all the new floors in the bathrooms, adding all the new lights in the kitchen and bathrooms, Repaint all the interior walls of the kitchen and bathrooms too. All the design done by Zohar. The work was better than perfect and the cabinets fits like a glove to the kitchen space and they are mainly outstanding. The design part of the kitchen and bathrooms are one of Zohar's main qualifications. Supervision to perfection, dependable vendors for all the materials and appliances which added another reason why this remodeling was a success. The remodeling project was over after 4 weeks of daily work and it was 2 days longer than projected, but it's was not an issue at all because it came out better than what we wanted. All the list for minor repairs that were needed to be corrected, were fixed by the people in swiftly and professionally way. Regarding the final amount of the project – the price was good and Zohar didn’t increased it even though with the several changes that we asked and he did for us. We'll happily use them again."

"I don't think you could ask for a more professional contractor. I was thoroughly satisfied with the contractor himself, the employees, the work that was performed, their punctuality, their availability and their ability to help me after the earth quake took place. Everything that I needed, they were able to attend to and repair. They were clean. In a job that could have been extremely messy, they were fantastic. I would recommend them completely to any friend of family member."

"This is a multi family  residence, more like an income property. After the use of many years and many cars in and out of the driveway. It had to be repaired someday. These guys came in quick and repaired and sealed the driveway. Took a few days but the final work was great!

"They were wonderful. Everybody that came that worked was a gentleman. Everyone always acknowledged me when I went out to ask a question. The man who runs the company was wonderful, the man who headed up the roofing explained everything; he helped me up on the roof so I could see everything. The painter brought me samples and listened to what I wanted. The clean up was wonderful, they were just great, they were wonderful! They could be a little bit neater. There was tar -- we have a flat roof -- and they took off tar and rock and they replaced all of the broken plywood and shattered plywood. They took over 4 tons off of the roof of rock and tar. The lazy man patches were all repaired, and there was tar on the walk way and the driveway. They did clean it up, they got rid everything, but we eventually walked it in to the house and stuff like that; just neater."

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

Regular inspections and cleaning to prevent moisture or pest issues.

The tool you use to sand plaster will depend on the size of the project. If you’re just working on a small section of your wall to get rid of an uneven spot on the surface, hand-sanding might work. However, for larger projects, a drywall sander can make a huge difference when it comes to both time and elbow grease—and an orbital sander can help for detailed areas such as around ceiling fans.

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.

Smaller is better when patching holes with spackle. Any holes wider than four to six inches in diameter tend to be too wide to repair with spackle alone. You'll likely want to patch bigger holes with a drywall panel. 

Even holes measuring up to 6 inches may be challenging to fill with spackle alone. For best results, purchase a wall repair patch made from wire mesh. Cut the patch to fit over the hole, then use the spackle to hold it in place. Apply the spackle over the patch as you would for a smaller hole.

Both plaster and drywall are durable wall finishes, but they differ significantly in installation, cost, performance, and aesthetics.

Installation & Cost: Drywall installation is faster and more affordable, typically costing $1.50 to $3 per square foot. It uses premade sheets, making it a more accessible DIY project. Plastering is a labor-intensive craft that requires specialized skills, pushing costs to $2 to $10 per square foot. It involves applying a wet paste over a lath framework.

Durability & Performance: Plaster is generally more durable, longer-lasting, and provides superior soundproofing. It is also a better insulator, which can help reduce energy costs. Drywall is easier to remove for future renovations.

Aesthetics: Drywall provides a smooth, uniform surface ready for paint or texture. Plaster offers a high-end, naturally textured look that can hide imperfections and is often preferred for achieving a classic or historic aesthetic.

Which is better? The choice depends on your priorities. Drywall is ideal for those prioritizing a lower upfront cost, faster installation, and DIY potential. Plaster is the better option for a higher-end project where durability, soundproofing, and a unique, premium finish are more important than the initial cost.
