"Very courteous and goes out of the way to help customer. All the work they did looks amazing. They went out of their way to clean up and were very professional. They showed up on time and stayed late on a Saturday to make sure everything was completed to perfection. We highly recommend this company for any stucco/ plastering job."

"The job was done and I got what I paid for. The beginning was a little bit difficult. For the first appointment he was on time then it was difficult to schedule the job itself. I had a discussion with the vendor, I bought 8 hours of vending and then he came to discuss what should be done because he came saying that the painting was to be done for 2 rooms. On my coupon he said 8 hours of painting or 4 hours for 2 persons and they were telling me they were only going to paint 2 rooms. In the end they worked on 2 rooms and it took them 6 to 8 hours. The communication could have been a little bit better. The work was completed a while ago because I waited a long time for the schedule to work. The price was good."

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

It’s not a good idea to plaster over broken plaster (unless by broken you’re referring to cracked, in which case that’s perfectly fine). However, broken plaster can be a sign of a larger underlying issue like foundation damage or severe damage to the lath holding up the plaster, so it’s worth investigating before you simply plaster on top of the damage.

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).

The short answer is yes, a sagging plaster ceiling is dangerous. Sagging plaster on a wall is something you should fix immediately, but it isn’t a major concern. If the same type of sagging occurs on a ceiling, however, you could be in danger of your ceiling falling in large chunks. When plaster sags, it loses its strength and ability to hold itself up. The bonds that hold it together are strong, though, so if a sagging area falls, it will take large pieces down with it.

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 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.
