"Our roof replacement with Ocean Seven Builders went better than we expected. Ron was easy to talk to and always got back to us quickly when we had questions. The workers were friendly and worked fast without cutting corners. Everything was done in a reasonable time, and the house was left clean afterward. We’re happy with how the new roof turned out!"

Gazebo fixing 10. Entire house caulking on the baseboards I made trips to Home Depot and Friedmans with Leo and got to interact with him closely. He guided me on the mold abatement project that I had to deal with different team and his team repaired the floor and cabinets that were cut by the abatement team.. I realized Leo and team has expertise, and their pricing is very reasonable. Also, with my urgency to complete the repairs before my tenant moved in , Leo was very accommodating to my ever growing project list. With out a question, Leo and team would be my first contact and I would definitely recommend them for any handyman job in the house. Thanks again Leo for the ownership of the job and all the help!"

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can apply new plaster over an existing plaster surface, such as a wall or ceiling, provided the old plaster is in good condition. Before you begin, check the stability of the existing plaster. The surface must be clean, free of loose material, and have no peeling paint. It is also recommended to roughen the surface slightly to promote adhesion. For older plaster, applying a base coat like a PVA emulsion or a specific bonding agent or primer is crucial. This step makes the existing plaster less porous and ensures the new and old layers adhere properly for a smooth, long-lasting finish.

Repairs typically take 2-4 hours for small areas. Larger or more complex repairs may require additional time.

Damp plaster does dry out, although the drying time depends on several factors, including the type of plaster, the surrounding temperature, moisture content, and the extent of the dampness. Sometimes, it can take weeks or months for wall plaster to dry naturally.

Plaster ceilings can sag for several reasons. In some cases, the plaster and other building materials shift and come apart over time, which is why you’ll commonly find drooping plaster ceilings in older homes. Improper installation, foot traffic, and water damage—often from a leaky roof or a broken pipe—can also cause plaster ceilings to sag.

Although they are used for similar tasks, spackle and joint compound are not the same. Joint compound, also known as drywall mud, consists of limestone and gypsum and is primarily used for large-scale projects like taping and finishing seams on new drywall. Spackle is composed of gypsum and binding agents, making it a thicker compound best suited for small wall repairs like filling nail holes or cracks, as it dries quickly and is easy to sand. For small repairs, either product can be suitable. However, you can use joint compound for small jobs in place of spackle, but you cannot use spackle for large-scale taping and mudding projects.
