"Excellent craftsmanship, professional, fair pricing, always in constant contact and completes projects ahead of schedule. Fernando and his team remodeled my kitchen, painted entire interior of my townhouse and installed new hardwood flooring as well as repairing a number of other things that needed to be addressed. I'm 100% satisfied with their work and they leave everything spotless after completing a project. I'll note that I met with 7 other contractors and Fernando was the most professional, the only contractor that took measurements correctly and the only one that submitted licensing and certificate of liability. I highly recommend Fer Home Services."

"Our project was somewhat of a last minute repair from a kitchen demolition. Mr Vazquez responded quickly and kept in touch throughout the process. He and his crew were prompt and courteous. I would contract his services again."

"Tony and his crew did an awesome sheetrock job. The work they performed was done very well with job circumstances. On time, professional, and met the target date of completion. I also had Tony complete the job by painting, which made the job easier to proceed relying on one company do more than one scope of work. Communication with Tony was on spot all the time.. Tony (AJ's Drywall) will be be my first call on future jobs. I am looking forward to doing alot more work with Tony and it will be really nice knowing how the outcome of the job will be, prior to starting the work... Great job Tony"

"I had drywall installed for about 4 rooms that needed to be completed after a terrible experience with another contractor who abandoned the job. I reached our to Overstate who came out to do the inspection quickly. They gave me a competitive quote and was very knowledgable during the consultation we had. They just completed the job and now my home looks refreshing. Their office was so supportive and kind during this process and all their workers very professional. Thanks to your team for the amazing job!"

"Larry does terrific work and we have used his services for > 10 years. He has recently repainted several rooms in a home we were selling and repainted most of the interior of the house we purchased this Spring. Even though some of the rooms in the purchased home were not in good condition (needed retaping, etc) and had not been painted in 20 years, the rooms now look beautiful. I could not be more delighted. He is also a pleasure to work with; very trustworthy."

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

While it is possible to repair minor plaster cracks or holes yourself, it is generally not recommended for larger jobs or if you want a professional result. Plaster repair can be difficult in practice; proper wall preparation and achieving a smooth, seamless finish that blends with the existing wall requires experience, especially on textured surfaces. Hiring a professional ensures the repair will be durable and last longer, potentially saving you money over time. A pro can also determine if the cracks are from normal expansion or a more serious underlying issue.

In most cases, plaster repair will improve your home’s energy efficiency because a solid barrier of the insulative material helps keep conditioned air inside your home. Major plaster repair jobs like repairing large cracks or crumbling sections of plaster or applying a skim coat might make a noticeable difference in your heating and cooling bills. Not only can plaster repairs improve efficiency, but they can also reduce strain on your HVAC equipment, potentially saving you money on maintenance and repairs.

Regular inspections and cleaning to prevent moisture or pest issues.

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.

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.
