"Cristian and his crew are fabulous. I totally updated my entire condo, including, kitchen, bathrooms, painting and all of the ceilings. I interviewed 3 contractors and Cristian was the only one who had the knowledge and insight to install ceiling lights throughout the condo. He was able to re do all of the old pop corn ceilings, moving a/c ducts and installing lights so that the condo is bright and looks so much bigger. He took down walls to open the kitchen, totally remodeled the kitchen and both bathrooms. He installed quartz countertops, backsplash tiles, new toilets and all of the cabinets. Cristian came every day. He and his crew worked long hours and were meticulous in cleaning up after the project. I highly recommend Cristian and his crew. We were so happy we chose them."

"Home Pros of East Coast responded quickly to our call for repair or replacement of a damaged wooden front door frame and did an excellent job. Happy to recommend this company. Rick Gangel undertook a creative approach to repair which cost us much less than replacement of the entire door frame."

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

All plaster walls will crack over time due to normal house settling and expansion and contraction from temperature and moisture changes. Small, thin hairline cracks are generally not serious and are mostly a cosmetic issue. However, larger or more significant cracks can indicate structural problems.

Here's how to tell the difference:

  • Cosmetic Cracks: Cracks that are 0.5 cm (0.2 inches) or thinner are typically cosmetic.

  • Structural Cracks: Cracks wider than 0.5 cm, excessive or deep cracks, multiple cracks in the same area, or cracks that span around corners can signify a structural or foundation issue. Cracks along the joints where walls meet the ceiling also warrant attention.

For cracks wider than 0.5 cm, structural repair is needed. If a crack is 2.5 cm (1 inch) or wider, or if you notice any signs of a structural problem, it is best to contact a plaster repair professional to assess the damage.

How long it takes to repair a ceiling depends on the extent of the damage. Patching a small hole might only take a few minutes, while repairing a water-damaged section of the ceiling could take hours. If there are structural issues, expect your ceiling repair to take several days or longer.

Damp plaster does dry out, although the drying time depends on several factors, including the type of plaster, the surrounding temperature, moisture content, and the extent of the dampness. Sometimes, it can take weeks or months for wall plaster to dry naturally.

If you already have plaster walls and ceilings, adding new plaster costs $2 to $10 per square foot. For an average-sized room, that would come out to $1,200 to $10,000. However, the cost to replace plaster with drywall is higher—running between $720 and $1,250 for a 10-by-8-foot wall or ceiling (not including drywall finishing).

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.
