"Spoke with Adam about the repairs (drywall replacement, patching, and two different paints to match the existing paints). I sent follow-up pictures of the areas to be repaired. Dave came out and provided an estimate for the repairs and painting. The estimate came back and was in line with what I had expected. We scheduled a date for repairs, Wednesday for the patching and Thursday for the painting. Dave returned to do the drywall work and did an excellent job installing the new drywall and patching other areas we had contracted for. John came over the next day to finish the walls and painted them. Again, excellent work. The paint matching really impressed me. The match was spot on and John feathered it in so well I could not tell where the old paint ended and the new paint started. I am very pleased with the work Adam and his team did."

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

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.

Regular inspections and cleaning to prevent moisture or pest issues.

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).

The short answer is yes, a sagging plaster ceiling is dangerous. Sagging plaster on a wall is something you should fix immediately, but it isn’t a major concern. If the same type of sagging occurs on a ceiling, however, you could be in danger of your ceiling falling in large chunks. When plaster sags, it loses its strength and ability to hold itself up. The bonds that hold it together are strong, though, so if a sagging area falls, it will take large pieces down with it.

You’ll want to inspect your plaster walls for signs of damage before painting. If you notice soft spots, deep cracks, bubbling, or areas where the plaster is crumbling or pulling away from the wall, it likely needs repair. While small hairline cracks are common and likely cosmetic, you should address larger issues before painting to ensure a quality, smooth finish.
