"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."

"Rob was excellent!!! We had the drainage tile system replaced in our 900 square foot finished basement, and the basement waterproofing company had to cut 2-3 feet up the drywall along the perimeter of our basement to complete the job. I called several companies to get drywall estimates, many times not even getting a call back. Had 2 quotes prior to RFB which were very far apart. RFB was responsive, price was very fair, Rob always stayed in communication, worked clean and was punctual. Since they had to match old drywall to new we were expecting some flaws but we were beyond pleasantly surprised, it looks like the whole wall has newly hung drywall from floor to ceiling. I waited to post this review until after it was primed and painted, and it looks EXCELLENT, beyond our expectations. Highly recommend, we will be hiring him again to repair some water damaged drywall in another room. (We still have to put trim up, but hopefully some of the quality shows through the pictures)"

"I found them on Angie's List and then called and received a quote immediately after providing dimensions and pictures.  I provided my own paint but they offered their preferred customer number for the paint store to help accelerate the process.  On the day of they arrived promptly and began working.  I was also in the middle of moving from one unit to this new unit and I felt comfortable enough to leave the guys there while I drove between the two units.
Great work, great experience, and extremely easy!"

"CQ Painting gave a competitive quote, and mobilized on schedule. They managed minor carpentry where siding or trim wood had rotted out, and did a good job of painting and good site clean-up each day and at the end of the job. Chris, the owner, did a final walk-through with us, and took care of the one or two final items that his crew hadn't completed."

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

If your home was built before the 1940s and was not remodeled in the past 50 or so years, you probably have plaster walls. Aside from assuming, there are some practical ways to tell if you have plaster walls, including the following: If you knock on the wall and it feels solid, not hollow, if you can’t insert a thumbtack easily, if there are cracks that look like spiderwebs, or if your home has curved, arched, or swirled walls, doorways, or window openings.

If you have an unfinished basement or attic, you could examine the backs of any finished walls to check, too.

You’ll want to inspect your plaster walls for signs of damage before painting. If you notice soft spots, deep cracks, bubbling, or areas where the plaster is crumbling or pulling away from the wall, it likely needs repair. While small hairline cracks are common and likely cosmetic, you should address larger issues before painting to ensure a quality, smooth finish.

The short answer is yes, a sagging plaster ceiling is dangerous. Sagging plaster on a wall is something you should fix immediately, but it isn’t a major concern. If the same type of sagging occurs on a ceiling, however, you could be in danger of your ceiling falling in large chunks. When plaster sags, it loses its strength and ability to hold itself up. The bonds that hold it together are strong, though, so if a sagging area falls, it will take large pieces down with it.

Both plaster and drywall are durable wall finishes, but they differ significantly in installation, cost, performance, and aesthetics.

Installation & Cost: Drywall installation is faster and more affordable, typically costing $1.50 to $3 per square foot. It uses premade sheets, making it a more accessible DIY project. Plastering is a labor-intensive craft that requires specialized skills, pushing costs to $2 to $10 per square foot. It involves applying a wet paste over a lath framework.

Durability & Performance: Plaster is generally more durable, longer-lasting, and provides superior soundproofing. It is also a better insulator, which can help reduce energy costs. Drywall is easier to remove for future renovations.

Aesthetics: Drywall provides a smooth, uniform surface ready for paint or texture. Plaster offers a high-end, naturally textured look that can hide imperfections and is often preferred for achieving a classic or historic aesthetic.

Which is better? The choice depends on your priorities. Drywall is ideal for those prioritizing a lower upfront cost, faster installation, and DIY potential. Plaster is the better option for a higher-end project where durability, soundproofing, and a unique, premium finish are more important than the initial cost.

It may take a bit of patience and trial and error to match your particular drywall texture type when making repairs. For orange peel or knockdown finishes, use a spray texture product or a thinned joint compound applied with a roller or sponge. Practice on scrap drywall or cardboard first. Once dry, lightly sand and prime before painting.
