"They were hired on October. the 24th of 2024. On that day his employee Brian Steptoe gave me the estimate of 7,800 dollars. At that time I gave him $3,000 dollars to order the material, but I found out he never ordered the material. Every time I talked to him he would lie about the material. So I went to Mr. Corbin s place of business, he promised to put someone else on the roof replacement job. He sent another one of his employees Timothy Sturgis to come and do the job. I had to give $3,932.07 for material that was supposed to be already ordered. So the material finally came, but he ordered the wrong color. So I had too pay another $906.46 for the right color. The right color material comes, Timothy starts on the roof on March 18th, 25th and 28th, before he left that day I told him they were calling for rain he said he would be back on that Saturday March 29th he never showed up. So on Monday March 31st we had a thunderstorm it rained hard, I was at my Moms house my niece call me and said it was raining in my house. So I got in touch with Francis and Timothy to let them know what happened, the ceiling above my bed caved in it was a blessing that I hadn t gotten in bed yet. So one of my co-workers came and tarped it down, he told me it s raining in my house because Tim cut my chimney off and cut all of my vents out and just left holes in my roof, the estimate for the inside damage is $3,840.00 plus $2,500 for labor. I had already talked to another contractor about redoing my porch when the roof was finished, so when he came over he offered to put the tin on so I said okay that s when I found out that Timothy ordered the wrong size tin, so I called lumber city and they wouldn t take it back because that s what Tim ordered. And I never got the fascia boards which Tim said Francis had I paid $1,433.07 for them. And I never got them. So my contractor that did the porch took over the roof replacement. I had to reorder material that was $3,988.70, $2,500 for labor and $1,433.07 for the fascia boards."

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

Whether you can repair or install plaster yourself depends on the project size and your tolerance for DIY projects. You may feel perfectly comfortable taking on a small plaster repair project, but prefer to leave a room restoration or renovation to a local plaster repair professional.

Since the project's end result, including its durability and appearance, depend on how well you prepare the wall and apply the plaster, you may want to let a professional take it on if you're not 100% confident.

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.

There are several warning signs that a ceiling crack is connected to a larger issue. For starters, if the crack is wider than 1/8 inch or longer than 12 inches, you might have a more serious problem. The same applies if you have multiple smaller cracks or cracks going across the ceiling and down the wall. In any of these situations, you should ask a professional to assess the damage.

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.

You can skim coat plaster, but it’s better to repair the plaster itself. A skim coat is a thin coat of drywall joint compound spread over the surface of a wall. The result is a flat finish that looks pleasing, but part of the appeal of plaster is its imperfections and aesthetic. Skim coating is best when limited to drywall applications.
