"We had multiple rooms that needed plaster repair on the ceiling and/or walls of our 96 year old house. From the time that M&C EuroDesign came to give us an estimate we knew that Mike was an expert with plaster repair. He was always on time and got the work done one day ahead of schedule. He cleaned up at the end of every day. He made sure that we were satisfied with the repair before moving on to the next room. We have already hired him again to fix work that was not done correctly by the company who renovated our bathroom years ago."

"Yeol and his team were extremely accomodating. He will put in the extra effort to meet requests and to ensure the work was completed to satisfaction. Overall, the quality of work was good. The painting and the plasterwork were good to great, wall and ceiling drywall construction below average (there were huge gaps between the outlet boxes and the drywall that were filled in with plaster). I would recommend for rental rebuilds/renovations but not in a situation where details matter."

"Georgios and his crew were very hardworking. Our job was challenging in that they came in after we had already been working with another painter and we were preparing to have a baby during the time his crew would be working so it was a tight turnaround time. His crew was willing to work with us to finish the job. We had both plaster repair and painting of an old home built in the 1930â s. They were very diligent to make sure the old plaster cracks were smoothed out and would look good when they were done. We did discuss a few options to repair portions of the walls once the job started. Georgios was up front on what the work would cost and gave us an opportunity to think things over. We did have some spots which needed to be redone and paint drops on our newly refinished wood floors which required additional clean up. Hiis team was able to clean things up to our satisfaction. I would recommend Georgios and his team and would use them again if the opportunity presents itself."

"My project consisted of removing some existing drywall and insulation on an exterior facing wall. PatchMaster did a great job, completed the work in one day, kept the area clean, and disposed of the waste material. Great work and would definitely use them again."

"Juan the lead was very prompt in communications and clear with the estimated work and what was to be done. The completed job has been very well done - repairing ceiling plaster issues, repairing broken plaster around shower supply pipe and fully repainting bathroom. Carefully taped and completed neatly, including careful clean-up. Highly recommended. Will hire again for future painting work. Thank you!"

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

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.

Yes, you can speed up the time it takes for plaster to dry, but it's important to do so carefully to avoid issues like cracking or crumbling. Proper ventilation is key; open a window or use a fan to circulate air in the room. Heat can also accelerate drying, but be cautious, as too much heat can cause the plaster to dry too quickly and crack. Check the plaster's packaging for the recommended drying temperature and set the room's thermostat accordingly. While managing humidity is important, avoid using a dehumidifier, which can remove moisture too aggressively and result in crumbly plaster.

Repairs typically take 2-4 hours for small areas. Larger or more complex repairs may require additional time.

You can repair plaster ceilings yourself after the cause of the ceiling damage has been addressed. However, the repair can easily take 5 hours and can be slightly challenging for those without previous experience. If you do decide to flex your DIY muscle, have a helper to help hold the ladder and pass you the tools for safety purposes.

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.
