Customers say: Super punctual

"We recently had the pleasure of working with JC Construction for drywall repair and interior painting throughout our home, and we couldn’t be more thrilled with the results! From start to finish, the team was professional, courteous, and highly skilled. Juan offered expert advice on the best way to handle the drywall repairs. The finish was exceptional and no dusty mess. We also had them paint the entire interior and every room looks fresh, vibrant, and beautifully transformed including a gorgeous paneled accent wall in our bedroom. The precision and attention to detail was particularly impressive and the clean-up after the job was done left our home looking spotless. Juan communicated clearly throughout the entire process. There is a true commitment to customer satisfaction that you rarely find in a construction company, especially at such an affordable price. We used them for drywall and painting services, but we highly recommend JC Construction for any home construction project. They exceeded our expectations in every way!"

"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"

"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!!!"

"I worked with Edgar, he communicated well and followed through on completing the job. We had the stucco around our windows repaired and our plaster ceiling repaired. We are happy with the results. He and his crew were attentive to details and they cleaned up the outside of our house well after they finished their work. We live in Sacramento, and he let me know that he is willing to travel to jobs in Sacramento or the bay area."

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

Plaster repair costs range from $4 to $10 per square foot for refinishing, while skim coating can be less expensive, usually between $2 and $5 per square foot. The price you pay for plaster repairs will depend on the extent of the damage, the type of plaster you have on your walls, and the accessibility of the damage. Plaster repair on the exterior of your home tends to be more expensive, as there’s a higher chance that ladders or scaffolding will be necessary to carry out the repair.

Technically speaking, you can use drywall primer over plasters. However, oil-based primers work the most effectively on wall plasters. Meanwhile, water-based primers work just as well with drywalls. Nowadays, there are also universal primers suitable for drywall and plaster. Overall, you will be fine as long as you are using a trustworthy brand.

Yes, you can install drywall over plaster, but there are important factors to consider. While it can create a smooth, flat surface, it is often not the best approach. Installing drywall over plaster will increase the wall's thickness, which can cause issues with existing window and door frames that may no longer fit. You might also need to adjust power outlets to keep them accessible. A better, though more expensive, option is to remove the old plaster and lath entirely before installing new drywall. Drywalling directly over plaster seals in the old material, and if any problems arise later, you will need to remove both layers down to the structural beams for repairs. Given the potential complications, this job is best handled by professionals.

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.

The allure of Venetian plaster lies in its unique appearance and individual characteristics in a home. It’s sophisticated and multidimensional and has a rich history dating back to Ancient Rome. This type of plaster finish is durable and represents a style of luxury that has been practiced for thousands of years. Many designers pair the texture of Venetian plaster with modern furnishings, resulting in an elegant and refined aesthetic.
