"Antoine Galvan arrived promptly to provide an estimate, his crew was waiting before the start time the following morning. They worked clean and checked their work before asking me to do a walk-thru before payment. My neighbor and real estate agent raved about the paint job. I have referred Galvans Painting to both of them. He and his crew do phenomenal work. The cut-in work, orange peel, I could go on. They also pressure washed the exterior and it looks like a brand new home. They painted every room in a 2,000 sq. ft. home in two days before my moving truck arrived. I am truly glad I went with them. I am very pleased."

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

Ensures structural integrity and aesthetic consistency with proper materials and techniques.

All plaster walls will crack over time due to normal house settling and expansion and contraction from temperature and moisture changes. Small, thin hairline cracks are generally not serious and are mostly a cosmetic issue. However, larger or more significant cracks can indicate structural problems.

Here's how to tell the difference:

  • Cosmetic Cracks: Cracks that are 0.5 cm (0.2 inches) or thinner are typically cosmetic.

  • Structural Cracks: Cracks wider than 0.5 cm, excessive or deep cracks, multiple cracks in the same area, or cracks that span around corners can signify a structural or foundation issue. Cracks along the joints where walls meet the ceiling also warrant attention.

For cracks wider than 0.5 cm, structural repair is needed. If a crack is 2.5 cm (1 inch) or wider, or if you notice any signs of a structural problem, it is best to contact a plaster repair professional to assess the damage.

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.

Smaller is better when patching holes with spackle. Any holes wider than four to six inches in diameter tend to be too wide to repair with spackle alone. You'll likely want to patch bigger holes with a drywall panel. 

Even holes measuring up to 6 inches may be challenging to fill with spackle alone. For best results, purchase a wall repair patch made from wire mesh. Cut the patch to fit over the hole, then use the spackle to hold it in place. Apply the spackle over the patch as you would for a smaller hole.

Costs depend on damage size, labor rates, and whether additional services like painting are required.
