"Joe did a fantastic job for a fair price! Our ceilings needed a lot of work to smooth them out and paint, as well as repair some damage. Joe had a tight schedule, but managed to complete the project in one week and did a great job. For the service he provided, I thought he offered a very fair price and we appreciate the work he did."

"It went great. I honestly cannot think of anything that didn't go well, or according to plan. Rob laid out the schedule, worked effeciently and explained everything during his daily progress reports. His crew is professional, pleasant and extremely cosiderate of being in someone else's home. Additionally, they collaborated with my plumber, whom I had called in to check the plumbing when they did the initial demo. They did everything according to plan, and cleaned up the entire mess, which is no small task with drywall repair. The job was done for the price quoted and they even did a little extra for no charge! When does that ever happen? They did an amazing job.I would not hesitate to call them again! They truly showed exceptional customer service!"

"The company and workers were extremely professional. Initially, the owner came out to give me a detailed explaination of the repairs and how much it would cost. He took me through the step by step process answering all my questions. It was also extremely convenient to meet with him since he came out on weekends to look at my condo. Each day, before the workers left, they cleaned my place. I was very satisfied with the work they have done."

"Chris, the owner, came out to give me an estimate before the work. He was on time, very professional, and knowledgeable about the work. He provided a written estimate for the work to be performed, and his estimate was on the high side of the 4 estimates I received. He was also able to give me an approximate amount for additional wood repair or replacement which I wanted done at the same time. Although I did not negotiate much with him on price because of his excellent reviews and the fact that although his price was the highest, it was still in the ballpark of the other estimates, and Chris was willing to match other service, warranty or additional work offered by the other service providers I received estimates from. The project went well. One to three men showed up on time over a few day period to power wash, scrape, repair or replace wood and prep for the job. They were all polite and professional and cleaned up at the end of each day. Chris was always available by phone or if requested in person to answer any questions. Chris worked with us in picking out the colors, and he is very knowledgeable in all aspects of the painting trade. A few extra items were required to be repaired which were discovered during progress of the job, and which was again handled in stride by Chris' team. The actual painting was again done on time and professionally. 2 to 4 men worked each day until the job was completed. Again the team was polite and professional. The job came out beautiful. I reviewed and inspected at the end of the job for any missed items or other issues and they were all addressed immediately. The final amount paid was as originally agreed to. You can trust this company to do professional work including in affluent areas where the level of service is expected to be done to a high standard. I have been in this house for 15 years and have had it painted every 5 years. This was by far the best job done compared with any of my past painters. I cannot give enough praise or say enough positive things about Chris and CQ painting. I also trust, based on his responsiveness and professionalism, that he will as stated, stand behind his work 100% if necessary. You cannot go wrong with this guy or his company and I will definitely use CQ Painting again."

Plaster Repair FAQs, answered by experts

Regular inspections and cleaning to prevent moisture or pest issues.

Yes, you can use drywall repair techniques for some types of plaster damage. Tiny holes and small cracks in plaster can be patched in similar ways to drywall. You apply the necessary compound to fill the hole, wait for it to dry, then sand it down. For larger damage, like water damage or mold, you need to use plaster-specific techniques and materials.

To maintain plaster walls, inspect them regularly for cracks and seal them early. Clean the walls by dusting regularly or using a gentle, damp cloth. It's also important to avoid moisture exposure. Repainting as needed will help maintain the wall's appearance and longevity.

Plaster walls typically last between 30 and 70 years, but depending on the quality of the materials and the moisture levels in the building, they can last for over 100 years. With expert application and consistent maintenance, plaster can even last for centuries. To extend its lifespan, it is important to have the plaster professionally installed, address any water damage promptly, and repair small cracks as they appear. Regular inspections by a professional can help identify and address concerning cracks before they become significant issues.

Costs range from $200 to $800, depending on the area size and damage severity.
