"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"

"Excellent communication- Gary de-activated a disused cellar door that was rotted away. He suggested an alternate route to completing the job that made it a better result overall. The end result is a flat concrete wall on the inside, and a sloping concrete slab on the outside- which is rain and element -proof. He removed all the old debris and rotten material, cleaning up completely. Highly recommended ‼️"

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

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.

With its breathability and flexibility, lime plaster is among the most durable of all plaster types. It's also fire-resistant and has a proven track record, as people have been using it for thousands of years.

However, all plaster types will last for many years with the right care and treatment. Proper preparation and installation will also help ensure your plaster walls look great for as long as possible.

Whether Venetian plaster increases your home's value often depends on the buyer's preference. As a purely aesthetic upgrade, it doesn't add structural value in the same way a kitchen or bathroom remodel might. However, its beautiful and attractive appearance can make a home more appealing to potential buyers, possibly leading to more interest, higher offers, and increased competition when you sell.

This depends on how much plaster is applied and in how many layers, but a decent estimate is around 150 square feet. If you are applying only two coats on a small wall, there is a chance you may only need one or two gallons for the entire project. If you are plastering a large living room wall with high ceilings, using one of the more involved techniques–like Scagliola–that requires several coats, expect the project materials costs to add up quickly. 

Wondering who to call for ceiling repair? While you can hire a handyperson to fix minor cracks, you’ll want to hire a drywall professional for larger issues. Depending on the cause of the crack, you may need to hire other contractors, such as a foundation contractor, mold remediation company, roofer, or plumber near you.
