"Kevin is very professional and knowledgeable about stucco wall installation and repair. He is a true expert in anything related to stucco. He presented us with a reasonable estimate after he assessed the damaged exterior wall. His timeline from start to end of project was on target (about 1 month). The work crew is very punctual, hardworking and cleans up the area nicely after each day. Kevin and his team updated us daily on the project so that we knew what to expect next. Nugent Plastering did great work on my new stucco wall and we will consider hiring Nugent Plastering for future projects"

Just awesome work will be booking him for my other three projects!!!"

"After calling several contractors to include a no show, I came across SF Interior & Exterior Construction Services. Georgi was xtremely professional and most resourceful. After a long delay due to back ordered curtain rods, a part broke mid installation. He went to Home Depot to try to remedy the situation as he knew I had waited several months to get curtains hung in my 11 ft ceiling apt. With the curtain rods installed and curtains hung, the rooms have been beautifully transformed. I’m very pleased with his work as he provided great service, cleaned up after the work was done while displaying a great due of patience in the process. I would highly recommend this company."

"I would recommend Menaci Drywall Design to anyone looking for home repair work. They were quick to reply and answer questions, get info on what work needed to be done and scheduled an appointment to come do work. From first contact to completion was done in 3 days due to it being over Thanksgiving, had it been a regular week I believe it would have been done even sooner. The friendly and professional service is much appreciated!"

"I've written in another page that I just moved here after many years in Europe and I'm trying to adjust back to life in America. I bought a house a long time ago and because I rented it I chose to renovate the rear of the house and turn it into a guest house - and the good fellas have done the work and renovation. I am very pleased and with complaints free about the conduct of their work. I am relatively a very difficult man to work with because I have too high standards and I let allow myself too much - so I'm even more surprised it was comfortable working with them. They appreciated what I had to offer and I listened to their ideas. At the end we did of course - what I wanted, but in their own way - a compromise :)
Very satisfied and would recommend to anyone who wants a good proffsional remodeling company to complete home construction."

"I'm going to have him come out and do a second bid but I haven't had him do any work for us. The bid that he gave us covered the information that he felt was appropriate. I didn't find on it some of the technical stuff like the wire or vapor barrier or some of the things that would be useful for someone having stucco put on a house. He didn't list the thickness that was going to be used. He did mention that he was going to apply the drivit finish on all the walls and skim coat with poly bond. He was fabulous and very helpful. He showed some things and spoke a lot. There are things that I want him to rebid. He shot me the original bid very fast. He just needs to give some added information."

"Jake was on time, and as I showed him the repair projects, he gave me a total construction rundown on the areas. ( Before I hired Stucco Solutions, Jake wanted me to send him pictures via internet to give me an estimate. I thought that was proficient.) Within a couple of hours, the job was done and he cleaned up the area."

"Guys did a great job as promised.  Took advantage of a $999 special; an additional $300 for extra exterior door painting.  Approximately $1000 in paint necessary but we chose top quality paint in lieu of having Better Choice select paint.  House was power washed and some trim replaced prior to painting.  Some delays due to the high temperatures we experienced that pushed out the job a couple of times.

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

If the holes in the plaster are small, you can fill them with layers of patching plaster until they’re filled. After it dries, you can sand the plaster and paint over it. If the hole is much larger, consider using bonding plaster first and then a layer of patching plaster, completing the process with sanding and a layer of paint.

While it’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.

Yes, you can use drywall repair techniques for some types of plaster damage. Tiny holes and small cracks in plaster can be patched in similar ways to drywall. You apply the necessary compound to fill the hole, wait for it to dry, then sand it down. For larger damage, like water damage or mold, you need to use plaster-specific techniques and materials.
