"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."

"This is the first review I'm going to leave because this guy really impressed me, he is only 23 years of age and has the ability to organize a whole working team, not just concentrating on collecting the money, he concentrated on finishing the job properly and so he earned my respect, I would recommend it 1000 times if necessary."

"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

Smaller is better when patching holes with spackle. Any holes wider than four to six inches in diameter tend to be too wide to repair with spackle alone. You'll likely want to patch bigger holes with a drywall panel. 

Even holes measuring up to 6 inches may be challenging to fill with spackle alone. For best results, purchase a wall repair patch made from wire mesh. Cut the patch to fit over the hole, then use the spackle to hold it in place. Apply the spackle over the patch as you would for a smaller hole.

The cost to repair a ceiling after a water leak can vary, with averages ranging from $419 to $1,359, or $45 to $55 per square foot. Smaller patches may cost around $150. The final price depends on the size of the affected area and the extent of the damage. Remember that you will also need to repair the source of the leak, such as roof damage or a plumbing issue, which can cost an additional $200 to $1,550. Depending on the situation, you might also face costs for repainting or repairing floors. For an accurate estimate, it is best to get a quote from a professional.

It may take a bit of patience and trial and error to match your particular drywall texture type when making repairs. For orange peel or knockdown finishes, use a spray texture product or a thinned joint compound applied with a roller or sponge. Practice on scrap drywall or cardboard first. Once dry, lightly sand and prime before painting.

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.

Depending on how much adhesive was used as well as the strength of the adhesive, you may have some drywall damage when removing a mirror. You can typically repair most drywall damage if it’s small by sanding the damaged area, applying spackle to smooth the damaged section so it’s flush with the rest of the wall, and repainting the area.
