"Fred Weiss was very pleasant and knowledgeable in my repair work with the ceiling. I had about 10 nail pops that had to be fixed and repainted. Fred did a great job. Would recommend to anyone. I thought he was reasonable too. I have other projects I will call Fred to help me out with those. It was a pleasure meeting you too"

"I had an emergency service request where the faucet in my shower lost tracking and will not close. The water was running for an hour or so until someone gave me their number. I called them and within half hour someone showed up at my door with what was needed to fix the issue. I didnt know what was needed but they already knew the issue. They had me temporarily turn off the entire water system in my house, which was not a bother. But how swift they were actually amazed me. I was so grateful. Almost a month later, no issues, I am so glad they replaced that cartilage if thats what it's called."

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

Ceiling-mounted curtains won’t damage the ceiling if they’re installed properly. Using the right anchors or securing the brackets into joists will ensure the curtain weight is properly supported and prevent damage. However, overtightening screws, using weak anchors, or repeatedly removing and reinstalling hardware in the same spot can cause cracking or sagging over time. In that case, you might have to call a pro for ceiling repair.

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.

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.

If the holes in the plaster are small, you can fill them with layers of patching plaster until they’re filled. After it dries, you can sand the plaster and paint over it. If the hole is much larger, consider using bonding plaster first and then a layer of patching plaster, completing the process with sanding and a layer of paint.

Costs depend on damage size, labor rates, and whether additional services like painting are required.
