"They did an excellent job painting our kitchen, hallway and bathroom. Plaster in the bathroom needed to be redone. Kitchen and bathroom look like totally different rooms now. They also cleaned, painted and sealed our metal kitchen cabinets. They look brand new. Definitely will use HoleShot again if another project comes up."

"Needed walls and ceiling repaired after plumber found water leak. E and E did a great job, so I hired them to paint my living space. Another job well done. Ceiling now white, walls pale yellow, doors, wood trim, baseboards a nice clean white. Daniel is conscientious and his team did a wonderful job of covering my furniture, wood floor and carpets to avoid any drips. Thank you to Daniel, Doug, Isaiah, Ashe and Scott."

"Matt was professional, arrived on time, and gave a fair price for all work performed. He performed the entire job (dry wall installation, trim repair, and painting) himself. He communicated well throughout the process and was happy to explain any work he did. He says he won't do anything that he wouldn't do in his own home, and cares about the customer's happiness over getting the job done quick."

"Denis K., project mgr., was at our home the day after initial contact. When he left we had a quote for the work requested. His crew began the work Monday of the next week. They were on time daily and did an excellent job. Denis checked on the work each day. Working with him was very easy. Would definitely use them again and highly recommend Gold Leaf Design."

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

It is possible to apply plaster on the interior or exterior of your home, but we don’t recommend it. Plaster is easy to apply in theory, but in reality, it can be a challenging material to work with, and it’s difficult to get the finished product to look clean, even, and smooth. Many DIYers end up calling in a professional afterward to touch up the area or even redo it entirely because of mistakes they made in the process. Hiring a plaster pro will cost more, but it’s usually the best option to achieve high-quality results.

Although they are used for similar tasks, spackle and joint compound are not the same. Joint compound, also known as drywall mud, consists of limestone and gypsum and is primarily used for large-scale projects like taping and finishing seams on new drywall. Spackle is composed of gypsum and binding agents, making it a thicker compound best suited for small wall repairs like filling nail holes or cracks, as it dries quickly and is easy to sand. For small repairs, either product can be suitable. However, you can use joint compound for small jobs in place of spackle, but you cannot use spackle for large-scale taping and mudding projects.

Technically speaking, you can use drywall primer over plasters. However, oil-based primers work the most effectively on wall plasters. Meanwhile, water-based primers work just as well with drywalls. Nowadays, there are also universal primers suitable for drywall and plaster. Overall, you will be fine as long as you are using a trustworthy brand.

Plaster that sags or bulges, shows extensive deep cracks, or is crumbling from water damage or simply time may need replacement. Plaster walls can look a little “worn” for a long time before they need replacing. The only real way to know if it needs a replacement is to hire a professional to assess the condition of the plaster.

While you should consult with a ceiling professional for larger cracks, especially if you’re not sure what’s causing your ceiling to crack, you can certainly try to repair small cracks on your own. If you’re up for the task, here’s how to repair ceiling cracks for $150 or less.
