"The owner Bob is very friendly and professional. He is excellent at his job. I had a fairly small amount of work. Everything was covered, cleaned and finished in one day. He gave me a price before hand and that's what I paid. I'm so happy with the work that he did in my home. I highly recommend this business."

"Very impressed with all phases of Parker Contructions work!! We collected quotes from several contractors, but it became crystal clear during this process that Ray Parker was the right guy. We feel extremely fortunate that we were able to hire Ray for all our work. Our home was built in 1815 and he understood exactly what we were trying to accomplish while retaining the "Federal Style" of our home. Ray's very easy to work with, friendly, professional, very high quality standards and his attention to detail is second to none as if it was his own home. He far exceeded all our expections! You just can't find contractors like Ray these days unfortunately who takes pride in all his work. I would not hesitate to hire Ray again for future projects and plan on contacting him again later this summer for 2-car detached garage contruction and indoor motorcross riding circuit.

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can install drywall over plaster, but there are important factors to consider. While it can create a smooth, flat surface, it is often not the best approach. Installing drywall over plaster will increase the wall's thickness, which can cause issues with existing window and door frames that may no longer fit. You might also need to adjust power outlets to keep them accessible. A better, though more expensive, option is to remove the old plaster and lath entirely before installing new drywall. Drywalling directly over plaster seals in the old material, and if any problems arise later, you will need to remove both layers down to the structural beams for repairs. Given the potential complications, this job is best handled by professionals.

Common causes of ceiling cracks along drywall seams include poor drywall installation techniques, structural issues, truss uplift, and foundation problems. Temperature and humidity also play major roles in ceiling cracks flush with the wall. As the drywall shrinks and expands from major temperature changes or extreme humidity shifts, this can cause the drywall to crack.

You can plaster over regular drywall, but it's essential to prepare the surface properly. Before plastering, the drywall should be clean, free of dust, and any loose or peeling paint should be removed. Applying a primer specifically designed for plastering can improve adhesion. Some professionals recommend applying a base coat of plaster or joint compound to create a better surface for the plaster to adhere to. Proper preparation ensures a smooth and durable plaster finish over regular drywall.

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.

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.
