"Rick did a great job on a difficult project that included removing sub-par work by previous contractors, mating new drywall to existing plaster, repairing 57 y.o. plaster walls and ceilings then painting. Looks great and he is the consummate professional."

"Working with JHR was a very smooth process. I had a leak in my ceiling and plumbers came out to cut a hole in the ceiling and repair the pipe. I sent Juan a photo of the hole in drywall via email, and they sent back a quote within a few hours. Their quote was in a professional format, and was the cheapest of the 3 quotes I received. I ended up hiring them and Rogelio came out on a Saturday to complete the work. The final product was beautiful, and it looked like there was never a hole there in the first place. They also repainted the ceiling which now looks way better than it did before! I will definitely be hiring them for future repair projects and painting (which is their specialty)."

Plaster Repair FAQs, answered by experts

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.

On average, repairing a ceiling costs anywhere from $450 to $1,750. However, there are many variables that can impact the price of this project. For example, the type of ceiling material, type and extent of the damage, and local labor rates all affect your costs. Holes and cracks are less expensive to fix, while structural issues and water damage are pricier problems.

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.

It depends on the construction of your wall. Most handypeople can fix small holes in drywall. If your wall is plaster or brick, more significant damage may require a drywall contractor or a mason. Hiring a handyperson costs less than a more specialized type of contractor, but they’re not trained in all types of wall repairs.

Plaster is a beautiful finish but is labor-intensive to install and remove. It’s vulnerable to cracking and more sensitive to moisture variance than drywall. Installing plaster on a new wall is an expensive process that can take days to weeks, depending on the scope. Removing a plaster wall can also be quite expensive and time-consuming.
