"Carlos was very easy to work with and prompt with showing up daily to complete work. I hired him to take out carpet and ceramic tile and install porcelain tile throughout the whole house. When unexpected repairs were needed , he was very flexible in accommodating my needs as my list of projects grew to drywall repair and painting. He made it easy to communicate via text while I was at work and unable to be there the entire time. He made it easy for me in getting the materials needed by sending me a thorough list in the quote and was easy to work with when I needed additional supplies. He is very dependable and trustworthy as I had no issue leaving him alone to do work when I was not home. I will definitely hire him again for future projects."

"Ronal was exceptional. His quote was more than reasonable. He arrived on time and was meticulous with preparation to prevent any mess or damage to my personal property. The repairs were done quickly and the care he took to match the texture on my ceiling was noteworthy. He repaired the settling cracks in my ceiling; you can look at the ceiling and never know a repair was completed. He did a great job and I will be using him in the future."

I have been in the construction business for most of my life. I have done industrial, commercial and residential roofing. I have ran my own maintenance services previously for years. Since I moved to Florida in 2018 I have held superintendent positions in residential and commercial companies. I offer light maintenance and punch-out work. I can install commercial restroom partitions and accessories. I am no stranger to ADA compliance. I am also OSHA 30 certified. I do post construction debris and supply removal. I can install metal and woden door frames and accessories.

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

Yes, you can apply new plaster over an existing plaster surface, such as a wall or ceiling, provided the old plaster is in good condition. Before you begin, check the stability of the existing plaster. The surface must be clean, free of loose material, and have no peeling paint. It is also recommended to roughen the surface slightly to promote adhesion. For older plaster, applying a base coat like a PVA emulsion or a specific bonding agent or primer is crucial. This step makes the existing plaster less porous and ensures the new and old layers adhere properly for a smooth, long-lasting finish.

If your premixed drywall mud is dried out or has begun to set in the bucket, you may be able to revive it by adding warm water and stirring. However, the first and most important step is to scrape off any hard, dried bits of drywall that may have accumulated toward the top of the container and throw them away because they will not easily reconstitute back into the drywall mud mix.

Plastering lasts for around 15 to 20 years without needing repairs or maintenance in most cases, and with proper upkeep, plastering can last a lifetime—sometimes more than 100 years. Plaster repair costs between $1 and $3 per square foot, and you may need these services once every 15 to 20 years or so unless you have a harsh climate where humidity changes are a constant issue. You can also opt to skim-coat plaster for between $0.90 and $1.30 per square foot, which may serve you better in the long run.
