"I had some 30 years of sprinklers hitting a stucco wall in the front of my house. It was peeling and I was concerned it would continue to penetrate the wall and cause mold. Home Advisor suggested LG Plastering. I called and was please that the owner, Phil Gould, called back the same day to schedule an appointment. He gave me an estimate and we agreed to have the work done. The result was excellent as he had two experienced plaster workers come and repair the problem. They also took care of 3 other small sites around the exterior of the house. It took less than one half of a day. All was cleaned up and there was no trace of them being here. Truly an outstanding experience and I recommend Phil and LG Plastering for any stucco problems one could have. Fair pricing too!"

"Beautiful work - repaired holes electrician needed to run a a new dryer 240V line into utility room. Oscar blended the plaster to match surrounding texture and repainted. It perfectly matches, cannot even find where holes were. He was on-time, called to reconfirm on his way and cleaned up nicely afterwards. No surprises and would definitely hire again."

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

Generally, your homeowner’s insurance might only cover ceiling collapses caused by problems under the coverage, such as a busted pipe. But if the ceiling collapse resulted from owner negligence, maintenance issues, or other reasons excluded by your policy, you could be on your own. Some policies might cover damages caused by the collapse but not the repair itself. Check with your policy carrier for the most accurate information regarding ceiling collapse coverage.

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.

You can put certain types of plaster over other types, but doing so isn't always the best idea. For example, putting a coat of gypsum over lime plaster is possible, but doing so will limit the lime plaster's breathability and potentially affect its performance.

Since cement plaster tends to leave a textured surface, no matter how much you smooth it, some people prefer to use gypsum plaster as a topcoat over cement plaster, creating a smoother surface.

There are several warning signs that a ceiling crack is connected to a larger issue. For starters, if the crack is wider than 1/8 inch or longer than 12 inches, you might have a more serious problem. The same applies if you have multiple smaller cracks or cracks going across the ceiling and down the wall. In any of these situations, you should ask a professional to assess the damage.

If your home was built before the 1940s and was not remodeled in the past 50 or so years, you probably have plaster walls. Aside from assuming, there are some practical ways to tell if you have plaster walls, including the following: If you knock on the wall and it feels solid, not hollow, if you can’t insert a thumbtack easily, if there are cracks that look like spiderwebs, or if your home has curved, arched, or swirled walls, doorways, or window openings.

If you have an unfinished basement or attic, you could examine the backs of any finished walls to check, too.
