Rich and his crew repaired several areas on house where the stucco was missing down to the cement block. The largest area was about 3 foot in diameter before peeled off the loose area surrounding it.  There were a few area along the ground they pulled the dirt back and repaired them all the way down.   We also had several badly worn and chipped corners with 2-6" chips the finished corner edges are great.  They also ground out multiple cracks (at lease 50', probably more I did not measure) and filled them in with stucco and left a very nice finish on all areas.  

They did a very nice and professional job.  I am sure once I get the paint there will be no trace of their work.

Highly Recommended.

"Roy took on a large size job at our house. He and the crew hand skim coated, sanded, primed, sanded, primed and painted almost 80% of our home in 10 days! Roy and his team were professional, and worked late hours to overcome any obstacle they faced. The walls were beautifully painted, and my wife and I could not be happy with the amazing effort, and result in our home. Roy's team sanded and painted, and re-sanded an painted until every wall was perfect. Even areas that my wife and I though looked great were redone if they did not meet Roy's standards. Roy and his crew were incredible to have work for us, provided outstanding customer service, and left us with an end result that was BEAUTIFUL! I cannot recommend Roy and his team enough for any painting and skim coating job you may have. Roy is a stand up guy, does what he says he will do, overcomes any obstacles he meets and leaves the job with a beautiful finished product. Incredible value and quality!"

"Wonderful!  
Rob met with us and listened to what we wanted to do.  He presented us with a detailed proposal at a fair price.  He followed the proposal document carefully throughout the project and helped us focus on what we had agreed to do.  Both Rob and Tom were very professional and courteous.  They were respectful of our home and were a pleasure to be around.  By the end of the project they felt like part of the family!
Our bathroom was very ugly and outdated.  They removed the old cabinets, repaired the plaster, painted, installed new cabinets, tub surround and toilet.  It looks beautiful now!
In our kitchen they removed wallpaper, repaired plaster, painted walls and ceiling and removed our existing flooring.  We found unexpected hardwood underneath so we hired The Sandman to refinish our floors because the damage was more extensive than Rob could repair.
Our stairwell was covered with stucco.  They removed it, repaired the walls, including a large hole in the plaster and then painted.  It looks great.
We will definitely hire them again!

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

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.

It’s not a good idea to plaster over broken plaster (unless by broken you’re referring to cracked, in which case that’s perfectly fine). However, broken plaster can be a sign of a larger underlying issue like foundation damage or severe damage to the lath holding up the plaster, so it’s worth investigating before you simply plaster on top of the damage.

Yes, you can apply new plaster over an existing plaster surface, such as a wall or ceiling, provided the old plaster is in good condition. Before you begin, check the stability of the existing plaster. The surface must be clean, free of loose material, and have no peeling paint. It is also recommended to roughen the surface slightly to promote adhesion. For older plaster, applying a base coat like a PVA emulsion or a specific bonding agent or primer is crucial. This step makes the existing plaster less porous and ensures the new and old layers adhere properly for a smooth, long-lasting finish.

Plaster can be a difficult DIY to master, especially if you plan to plaster an entire room, rather than patch a small area. Before you begin a plaster DIY project, you need to know which tools and type of plaster to use. It's also important to know how to prepare the surface and apply the plaster for a smooth finish. If that all sounds like a lot of work, you may prefer hiring a local plaster repair contractor to do the job.

If you already have plaster walls and ceilings, adding new plaster costs $2 to $10 per square foot. For an average-sized room, that would come out to $1,200 to $10,000. However, the cost to replace plaster with drywall is higher—running between $720 and $1,250 for a 10-by-8-foot wall or ceiling (not including drywall finishing).
