"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."

"We hired Luis to repair damaged drywall and plaster walls. Luis was timely in his responses to questions and made us feel comfortable with his suggestions. He showed up on time and finished our project quickly. With drywall repair there can be a lot of dust, but Luis left his work area clean. Will hire him again for future projects."

"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."

"I cannot say enough wonderful things about Juan and his crew. We had an extensive project that including painting all of the trim, windows & doors in our home, repairing plaster cracks, regular drywall repair and painting of the whole house. Juanâ s team was meticulous with preparation of the space. We just had our floors done and they laid and taped brown construction paper throughout. The amount of time they spent focusing on the details made all of the difference. Our walls look brand new and the quality of the painting is top notch. His whole crew is full of hard-working talented painters and friendly guys. Could not recommend him enough! Scope of project: -painted all walls and ceilings -painted two staircases (risers, banisters, posts etc) -painted all of the doors in our home -painted all of the trim -painted all of the windows -painted picture rails -repaired plaster cracks -replaced water damaged ceiling"

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

You can technically just paint over hairline cracks in plaster since these cracks are often harmless, but this will mostly be a waste of paint. Paint will only hide the hairline crack for a few months before it shows up again. The best solution is to repair the crack with flexible filler or joint compound before repainting.

Although they are used for similar tasks, spackle and joint compound are not the same. Joint compound, also known as drywall mud, consists of limestone and gypsum and is primarily used for large-scale projects like taping and finishing seams on new drywall. Spackle is composed of gypsum and binding agents, making it a thicker compound best suited for small wall repairs like filling nail holes or cracks, as it dries quickly and is easy to sand. For small repairs, either product can be suitable. However, you can use joint compound for small jobs in place of spackle, but you cannot use spackle for large-scale taping and mudding projects.

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

Only use spackle on plaster walls when the imperfection is small. It’s best used for nail holes or small dings in the plaster. Spackle dries quickly, allowing you to continue the repair process shortly after using it. Plaster can be tricky to repair, though, so if you run into issues, call a pro so that you don’t risk further damage.

Damp plaster does dry out, although the drying time depends on several factors, including the type of plaster, the surrounding temperature, moisture content, and the extent of the dampness. Sometimes, it can take weeks or months for wall plaster to dry naturally.
