"I had an outer wall that was retaining moister and had to be fixed before mold set in. PPC removed drywall, and outside plaster and replaced it all. Alfredo was great to work with. He gave me a reasonable quote, communicated well and got the job done in a timely manner. I will hire them again."

"I needed a couple of walls textured and a little bit of repair and it just so happened that he had an opening the morning that I called. He came right over and took care of me, even going above and beyond my expectations. He was really great and I would definitely refer him to anyone. I did not get other estimates, therefor cannot comment on the price."

"It went fantastic! When Daniel came out for an estimate for the Art Studio, I knew immediately that he knew everything about dry wall. He explained in detail the difficulty of the job because of all the angles that needed cutting for a gambrel style roof. I also liked the fact that this was a family business with his brothers, father and even his Mother came out to help with clean up. His father was an expert at skip troweling technique and worked very hard and long hours. The entire job took one week and my wife and I are very pleased. I would definitely recommend them for your project."

"SRC Drywall, Inc. did a great job on time and on budget. I have an older home and wanted the popcorn ceiling removed and a smooth finish on the new plaster to match the other rooms. I was impressed by how smooth and even everything turned out. I have recommended them and would hire them again."

"Antiques Plaster did a fabulous job on fixing cracks in my stucco and re-pointing the brick on the front of my house. Duane and his family were very very professional. They kept me in the loop through the entire process. I knew what they were going to do next I knew when they would be back the next day. Working with them was an an overall wonderful experience. I wasn’t able to upload all the photos because Angee‘s only let you upload a certain amount. Higher them for your job."

"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

Common causes of ceiling cracks along drywall seams include poor drywall installation techniques, structural issues, truss uplift, and foundation problems. Temperature and humidity also play major roles in ceiling cracks flush with the wall. As the drywall shrinks and expands from major temperature changes or extreme humidity shifts, this can cause the drywall to crack.

All plaster walls will crack over time due to normal house settling and expansion and contraction from temperature and moisture changes. Small, thin hairline cracks are generally not serious and are mostly a cosmetic issue. However, larger or more significant cracks can indicate structural problems.

Here's how to tell the difference:

  • Cosmetic Cracks: Cracks that are 0.5 cm (0.2 inches) or thinner are typically cosmetic.

  • Structural Cracks: Cracks wider than 0.5 cm, excessive or deep cracks, multiple cracks in the same area, or cracks that span around corners can signify a structural or foundation issue. Cracks along the joints where walls meet the ceiling also warrant attention.

For cracks wider than 0.5 cm, structural repair is needed. If a crack is 2.5 cm (1 inch) or wider, or if you notice any signs of a structural problem, it is best to contact a plaster repair professional to assess the damage.

Many services include repainting to match the existing surface. Confirm with your provider.

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.

Plastering lasts for around 15 to 20 years without needing repairs or maintenance in most cases, and with proper upkeep, plastering can last a lifetime—sometimes more than 100 years. Plaster repair costs between $1 and $3 per square foot, and you may need these services once every 15 to 20 years or so unless you have a harsh climate where humidity changes are a constant issue. You can also opt to skim-coat plaster for between $0.90 and $1.30 per square foot, which may serve you better in the long run.
