SORRENTINO PLASTERING

About us

I specialize on resurface of horse hair plaster. Also, all types of plaster repairs and stucco work. For example, water damage and cracks. My ultimate goal is to have the repair look as though it never occured and original. Additionaly, can install blue board for new walls and ceilings. Lastly, my experience stems from Italy, with over 35 years in the trade. All work is performed by myself, it is never subcontracted to other contractors. If a job is on the larger scale, and help is needed, only professsional and experienced workers are employed. Futhermore, every step of the work performed is done under my supervision.

Gerry is great. He completely redid three crumbling horsehair plaster closets (walls & ceiling), patched with sheetrock and covered with plaster as smooth as can be. He even did it over a weekend because I needed it done prior to the installation of shelving systems. I could not be more pleased with the quality of his work. A really nice guy who rightly takes great pride in his work.

Gerry did excellent work for us! He repaired our 100-year-old horsehair plaster walls, replaced a damaged ceiling, smoothed out two 80's plastered ceilings, primed all our walls, and painted all our crown molding/trim throughout the house. At each stage of the work he would walk us through his progress, answering all our questions and offering up advice for future projects. He also coordinated with other contractors that were doing work at the same time, ensuring things went smoothly. Gerry was great to work with and we would happily use him again!

I was very pleased with Gerry's work on our sunroom ceiling. He repaired plaster damaged by water and construction. He also painted our ceiling and trim. Gerry was very pleasant and responsible. He pays attention to detail and takes great pride in his work. He kept the work area neat and organized. Gerry was efficient and quiet while he was in our home. Excellent worker. We will have Gerry back on our next project!

Mr. Sorrentino did an excellent job, he is very responsible, honest, and skilled. It was a bit pricey but well worth it.

Work came out beautiful. Gerry S. was responsive, punctual, tidy and his work was careful & thorough. Wish I could show before & after-- 100+ year-old plaster walls went from cracked & pitted to smooth & pristine. We've had a lot of work done on our old house over the years and it's a real pleasure to find someone like Gerry who knows how to work with the materials and details of an old place to make it look its best.

Gerry provided helpful advice on the project when first discussing with him.  Even though he was very busy he called back the same day.  We were attempting to rehab a 3rd floor bedroom with an old horsehair ceiling and walls.  Gerry gave us several options and the pros and cons of each.  Once we decided on the plan he was able to fit us in to his busy schedule.  He is clearly a master of his craft and his attention to detail was impressive.  Ceiling and walls came out beautiful.  The cleanup was great as well as the room was perfectly cleaned without any damage to the hardwood floors.  As a major bonus Gerry (without any mention from us) happened to have an antique porcelin doorknob that matched the doors in the rest of our 115 year old house and installed it for no charge when he noticed the ugly mismatched doorknob in the room.  That was a huge surprise as I had been looking for a matching doorknob for many months online and in shops around Boston with no luck.  Gerry was a pleasure to work with and would hire him again in a second.

Gerry was fantastic.  He replaced the cracked ceiling in my living room, restored the walls (without use of drywall),  then primed
and painted it all..  Everything was done as promised, within the promised timeframe.  Gerry was easy to deal with.
The job couldn't have gone better.  I can't recommend Gerry highly enough and I hope to hire him again in the near future.

From the prompt response to our inquiry to the quick schedulung for both inspection and repair, the job went brilliantly. Gerry did more than we knew to ask, and cleaned up as though no one had even been there. Also provided a piece of the original plaster so that we could easily match the color when painting. Mr Sorrentino is a true craftsman, who takes great pride in doing excellent work. Worth every penny !

We have an older home with horsehair plaster. Gerry had to replace the insulation in the walls and replaster. One room the walls were textured and he had to match that pattern.
Gerry was very responsive. He called right back came out quickly for an estimate. He started when he said he would and was on-time every day. 
It was a very messy job but he left the house clean and neat when he left.
We would definitely recommend  him and if we have a need we will use him again.

Excellent Worker & Excellent work!
My 100 year old garage had the sand and horsehair plaster walls falling down plus the wood supporting the garage walls had water damage.  Mr Sorrentino removed the old material and wire.  He put in cement board, put brackets into the cellar concrete floor to stabilize the garage walls.  He patched the cellar concrete floor behind the concrete boards and then repaired all the holes and cracks in the garage walls and ceiling.  He plastered the garage walls and ceiling then sealed them with a special product..
He removed all the debris.  Then he cut up all the old wood we had in the garage and cellar (which was not in the original job  description).  He said he was an apprentice in Italy at 14 doing this work and it shows.  He works alone and works very fast.
He was here promptly at 7:00 AM every day.  His work is meticulous and I recommend him highly.

My experience with Gerry was great. I called him and left a message on a Sunday and he promptly returned my call the following day. I had left messages for 5 different companies and Gerry was the only one who responded in a timely manner. We made an appointment for him to come out and take a look at the job on Saturday. Gerry called and told me that the job he was currently working on was not finished as he had hoped and he rescheduled to come out and look at my job on Sunday. Gerry arrived promptly at 8:30 AM and gave me an estimate on the spot. We scheduled the work for the following Saturday at 8:30 AM. Gerry showed up right on time and completed the work himself.  He is very knowledgeable about his craft and it shows in his workmanship. He cleaned up and left me with nothing more to do. I would recommend Gerry for any plastering needs.
