"I hired Mr. Ouellette repair cracks in my ceilings(Sheetrock) and to paint them(LR, DR, Hallway). Guy and his crew were very courteous, professional and friendly. They were very prompt. Guy gave me a scheduled date and time and they were Spot on. Canâ t say enough about their communication skills. Over the top! They explained how they would make the repairs and very thorough and â meticulous â when they made them. Since my ceilings were of a fine sand finish, they had to match the paint texture to match it(1967 vintage). After numerous trials, a lot of patience and â finickinessâ on their part an exact match was achieved. But NOT before they made sure I was satisfied with it. It was Perfect! The Crew was very neat, clean and protected all the surroundings, including the walls. When they finished everything was put back in its place. Service by Guy and his Crew was exceptional and beyond what I was expecting. He will be my â One stop Businessâ for future house painting projects!"

"Erick and his team did an OUTSTANDING job !! They had to do very extensive prep work (scraping and sanding) due to the sun damage on our home, in addition to some repair on woodpecker damage. The house looks simply amazing - we have encouraged Erick to use our house as a reference, and we are happy to talk to anyone that would like our review backed up in person. The house looks SO good our neighbor two doors up is also using Erick for their home !!!"

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

On average, repairing a ceiling costs anywhere from $450 to $1,750. However, there are many variables that can impact the price of this project. For example, the type of ceiling material, type and extent of the damage, and local labor rates all affect your costs. Holes and cracks are less expensive to fix, while structural issues and water damage are pricier problems.

Drying alone can take 1 to 4 hours to dry to the touch per plaster layer, but some types of plaster take several hours longer to dry. However, this doesn’t mean the job is done because plaster doesn’t fully harden until it cures, which can take a few days to a couple of weeks. It may take even longer if you’re building a new, pretty thick plaster wall. Allow the plaster to cure before painting it.

It is possible to apply plaster on the interior or exterior of your home, but we don’t recommend it. Plaster is easy to apply in theory, but in reality, it can be a challenging material to work with, and it’s difficult to get the finished product to look clean, even, and smooth. Many DIYers end up calling in a professional afterward to touch up the area or even redo it entirely because of mistakes they made in the process. Hiring a plaster pro will cost more, but it’s usually the best option to achieve high-quality results.

Technically speaking, you can use drywall primer over plasters. However, oil-based primers work the most effectively on wall plasters. Meanwhile, water-based primers work just as well with drywalls. Nowadays, there are also universal primers suitable for drywall and plaster. Overall, you will be fine as long as you are using a trustworthy brand.

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.
