I was a little overwhelmed and nervous going into this, but Avi and his team made the process smooth and stress-free. from the free quote to the repairs, it was a really positive experience, and I would absolutely use them again and recommend them to everyone."

"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

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.

You can repair plaster ceilings yourself after the cause of the ceiling damage has been addressed. However, the repair can easily take 5 hours and can be slightly challenging for those without previous experience. If you do decide to flex your DIY muscle, have a helper to help hold the ladder and pass you the tools for safety purposes.

While you should consult with a ceiling professional for larger cracks, especially if you’re not sure what’s causing your ceiling to crack, you can certainly try to repair small cracks on your own. If you’re up for the task, here’s how to repair ceiling cracks for $150 or less.

Only use spackle on plaster walls when the imperfection is small. It’s best used for nail holes or small dings in the plaster. Spackle dries quickly, allowing you to continue the repair process shortly after using it. Plaster can be tricky to repair, though, so if you run into issues, call a pro so that you don’t risk further damage.

Plaster provides a durable, soundproof, and moisture-resistant finish compared to drywall.
