"Dave did a fantastic job with fixing up our downstairs - removing popcorn ceiling, redoing with the orange peel and repainting. He also replaced our very old paneling with some new of our choosing. We purchased, he picked it up for us and delivered. Also volunteered to return an extra piece since I had ordered too much. 3 new doors - stained and installed. We love it. Dave is prompt, delivers what is promised on time. Very happy with his work. Definitely recommend Dave for his services."

"A big storm in March caused what seemed to be a pretty big leak in my roof. Kole was able to show up the very next day, locate the issue quickly and fix the problem . He then checked the rest of my roof without being asked and performed some preventative maintenance to avoid similar issues in the future. It is now June and we have experienced no additional leaking."

"I called Cooley Drywall on approximately 9/10/12 to ask for an estimate for ceiling texture repairs. I let him know that we were on a short timeline, and that we needed to have the work done as soon as possible. He came to do an estimate within a couple of days. He seemed very professional, knowledgeable, and friendly. We received an estimate immediately.
We ended up hiring another company because the estimate we received was significantly less than the one from Cooley. We would consider hiring Cooley in the future, provided price was something we felt was reasonable.

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

You can plaster over regular drywall, but it's essential to prepare the surface properly. Before plastering, the drywall should be clean, free of dust, and any loose or peeling paint should be removed. Applying a primer specifically designed for plastering can improve adhesion. Some professionals recommend applying a base coat of plaster or joint compound to create a better surface for the plaster to adhere to. Proper preparation ensures a smooth and durable plaster finish over regular drywall.

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.

Applying plaster to a wall will usually cost between $2 and $10 per square foot for both the material and labor. The cost will vary based on the quality of the plaster you’re using and whether or not prep work is required before the work begins. Wall prep can add up to about 10% to your total costs. Plastering exterior walls can be more expensive in many cases because they are taller and require scaffolding and safety equipment.

While you should consult with a ceiling professional for larger cracks, especially if you’re not sure what’s causing your ceiling to crack, you can certainly try to repair small cracks on your own. If you’re up for the task, here’s how to repair ceiling cracks for $150 or less.

Many services include repainting to match the existing surface. Confirm with your provider.
