"Antonio and his crew, 3 Way Construction, executed a phenomenal interior paint job. The estimate was reasonable and comfortable to my budget. They were prompt, courteous, and very professional. They did an outstanding job from the beginning to the final touches and completed the project on schedule. I highly recommend 3 Way Construction for any of your handyman projects⠦⠦⠦.Deb H."

"Wired 2 Build, Joe Boyd and son Justin Boyd, were an absolute team in the replacement of Kitchen and bedroom floors. They had to tear out old rotted floors, re-level house, install new floor joists, install 3/4 inch plyboard, and installed laminate flooring on top of plyboard. New molding was installed all around walls. They did an excellent job in an above reasonable time-frame. I would highly recommend his professional services. He was reasonably priced. Will hire again for future home remodeling."

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

Repairs typically take 2-4 hours for small areas. Larger or more complex repairs may require additional time.

Generally, your homeowner’s insurance might only cover ceiling collapses caused by problems under the coverage, such as a busted pipe. But if the ceiling collapse resulted from owner negligence, maintenance issues, or other reasons excluded by your policy, you could be on your own. Some policies might cover damages caused by the collapse but not the repair itself. Check with your policy carrier for the most accurate information regarding ceiling collapse coverage.

Plaster ceilings can sag for several reasons. In some cases, the plaster and other building materials shift and come apart over time, which is why you’ll commonly find drooping plaster ceilings in older homes. Improper installation, foot traffic, and water damage—often from a leaky roof or a broken pipe—can also cause plaster ceilings to sag.

While it’s most common to sand plaster dry, it is possible to wet-sand plaster, too. Doing so can reduce the amount of plaster dust released into the air and make it easier to work in smaller, more delicate areas (such as around wall trim). However, some people find that wet sanding leads to more imperfections, which is why larger walls are more often dry sanded to ensure an even finish.

You can skim coat plaster, but it’s better to repair the plaster itself. A skim coat is a thin coat of drywall joint compound spread over the surface of a wall. The result is a flat finish that looks pleasing, but part of the appeal of plaster is its imperfections and aesthetic. Skim coating is best when limited to drywall applications.
