"Max was on time, professional, and very dedicated to getting the job done. He went above and beyond to paint our four rooms and our hallway - ceilings, trim, and walls. He fixed all of the drywall imperfections, moved all of the furniture, covered all of the area that was being painted and did an excellent job! He finished in two and 1/2 days. It looks to us like we have a new house. He also did an excellent job powerwashing our metal roof and gutters! We will definitely hire him again!"

"Forever After Renovations LLC did multiple jobs for me in a very short time at a very reasonable and affordable price! Their work is excellent and they were very good with cleaning up as they go which made my house very accessible wow getting much needed work done. I most definitely will be setting up an appointment to get a few other household projects done. My floors, drywall repairs and painting were done to my satisfaction and I'm loving the renovations made to my deck!"

"Great experience. Jerry replaced a couple shingles that blew off my roof. He also repaired many shingles that were loose and ready to come off also without additional expense to me. (Above and beyond) He is multi skilled and also did some other repairs around the house also. He does Do It All. All his prices were very fair and reasonable. Very impressed. Also got some other estimates for things to be done. Finally found a great handyman to do things we are not able to physically do. Plan on using him much more. Erin was also very helpful and professional. Response time was exceptional, came out and met me after my work hours and did repairs next day. Call them- you will be happy."

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

Installing or repairing plaster on ceilings differs slightly from performing the same motions on a wall. You’ll apply slightly less plaster to lower the overall weight of the ceiling. Wall texturing is common, whereas most ceilings are smooth plaster. Tough coat plaster is strong, meaning you can use less while retaining a solid surface.

You can put certain types of plaster over other types, but doing so isn't always the best idea. For example, putting a coat of gypsum over lime plaster is possible, but doing so will limit the lime plaster's breathability and potentially affect its performance.

Since cement plaster tends to leave a textured surface, no matter how much you smooth it, some people prefer to use gypsum plaster as a topcoat over cement plaster, creating a smoother surface.

Common causes include water leaks, settling, and impact. Address underlying issues to prevent recurring damage.

Whether you can install or repair plaster yourself depends on the project's size and your comfort level with DIY projects. It's possible to handle small repairs on your own, but for larger projects like a room restoration or a full installation, it's often best to hire a local plaster professional. The final appearance, even coverage, and durability of the plaster depend heavily on proper wall preparation and application. If you are not 100% confident in your ability to achieve a professional result, letting an expert handle the job is a worthwhile investment.

Generally, your homeowner’s insurance might only cover ceiling collapses caused by problems under the coverage, such as a busted pipe. But if the ceiling collapse resulted from owner negligence, maintenance issues, or other reasons excluded by your policy, you could be on your own. Some policies might cover damages caused by the collapse but not the repair itself. Check with your policy carrier for the most accurate information regarding ceiling collapse coverage.
