I cleared easy access to the breaker box, and he opened the breaker box to assess the situation. He had to relocate a breaker to allow the surge protection breaker to be installed, and close enough to the monitoring device to be attached together. He asked me whether I preferred the monitoring device to be mounted interally and hidden to save the $20 for the monitoring device mounting plate (which looks like a household light switch plate), or externally, and I requested externally. I asked questions constantly as to the functionality of the breaker, monitoiring device, home electrical system and wiring as he worked, and he patiently answered them. While I was surprised the mounting plate for the monitoring device looked unexpectedly simple and unreasonably expensive, I was told that the cost is the cost of the item as purchased by the complany form the manufacturer, and it is just passed along. After the devices were installed, a hole about 3/4 " remained next to the mounting plate which was not repaired as Eric stated he had no plaster. I called the company, and they confirmed that the situation happened, and they courteously stated Eric would return to perform the repair. I made an appointment, and as for the original appointment, Eric arrived on time as promised, having called about 1/2 hour before to notify us he was on the way. My home is now protected, and hopefully the device will not have to be challenged by an electrical surge. If it is, we'll see how well the surge protector performs its job. After review of the provider response to my review and of the events, Ratings were amended. The price may be great for the product and installation, but unknown so moved rating up to "Good" for firm benefit of doubt. The quality concerns were promptly addressed by the firm, and the punctuality of the service was Excellent.

In short, Benchmark did great work on what was, candidly, a challenging project due to the fact that the interior of the home is Poured Plaster Walls in a 80-year old City Townhome. Unlike today's drywall painting jobs, having a company that can do plaster wall work and make it look...

"This was the very best contractor experience that I can ever remember. Mr. Smith (Bill) was on time for both estimate and work and took better than exceptional effort to leave the area even better than he found it. He was reasonable in pricing, installed per ADA standards, matched existing hardware and explained, from great experience, why we needed to modify the placement of the bars. BTW He was right! I would strongly recommend him for your future needs. You will not regret your selection. RDL"

FAQs for plaster repair projects in Hanover, MD
Applying plaster to a wall will usually cost between $2 and $10per square foot for both the material and labor. The cost will vary based on the quality of the plaster you’re using and whether or not prep work is required before the work begins. Wall prep can add up to about 10% to your total costs. Plastering exterior walls can be more expensive in many cases because they are taller and require scaffolding and safety equipment.
Repairing plaster walls is almost always worthwhile. Not only will plaster repairs make your walls look new again, but repairs of minor cracks can often reinforce the plaster and help prevent the cracks from spreading and widening. Additionally, hiring a professional to carry out plaster wall repair means they can let you know if the cracking is a result of a severe underlying issue. Catching a problem like foundation instability early could save you thousands, a luxury you wouldn’t have if you just repaired the walls yourself.
Plaster repair costs range from $4 to $10per square foot for refinishing, while skim coating can be less expensive, usually between $2 and $5 per square foot. The price you pay for plaster repairs will depend on the extent of the damage, the type of plaster you have on your walls, and the accessibility of the damage. Plaster repair on the exterior of your home tends to be more expensive, as there’s a higher chance that ladders or scaffolding will be necessary to carry out the repair.
It is possible to repair plaster walls yourself, but it’s not always a good idea. Hiring a professional means you’ll have expert eyes on the damage looking to see if there is an underlying issue or if the cracks are just from normal expansion and contraction. Additionally, a professional’s plaster repair will very likely last longer than a DIY job, which means you could end up saving money over time by going with a pro from the start.
All plaster walls will crack over time with expansion and contraction from temperature and moisture changes, as well as from normal house settling. In these cases, the cracks will usually be thin and don’t mean there are major structural issues. However, excessive cracking, wide wall cracks, and cracks that span around corners can sometimes mean you have a foundation issue. Identifying severe problems is a key reason why hiring a professional for plaster repair is usually a good idea.
