Customers say: Quality work

"I hired John to do extensive drywall repairs in seven rooms of my house. He was easy to contact via phone and text, super easy to work with and completed everything I asked, even when I expanded the job midstream to remove a stained popcorn ceiling in my bathroom and paint it. I'm competely satisfied with all the work and would hire him again in a heartbeat. He even offered valuable advice on my DYI interior painting project, which comes next."

"We hired RNC to do three things: repair popcorn in several areas of our home, remove popcorn in the great room, and spray knock-down. They excelled in all three area. They were honest about the work and gave a very fair proposal. All promises for work schedules were kept and they finished early. The work is outstanding. I'm more than impressed. I've had my fair share of bad experiences with work being done in my home, but these two folks were SUPERIOR to any other company I've worked for. I will be hiring them again when we finish the basement on the new home we purchased. THANK YOU RNC!!! You've restored not only our ceilings, but my faith in a company to do exactly as promised!"

"Needed to replace and repair lots of rotten wood, and peeling paint on the house. looked at several options, and Continental worked hard to earn my business. They made a great sell, and provided financing that worked within my budget. It may have taken a while to get the actual work started (due in part to the COVID pandemic slowing everything down) but they called me every two weeks with an update on my position in line. The house looks fantastic, and I never need to worry about rotten siding again. Would highly recommend."

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

It may take a bit of patience and trial and error to match your particular drywall texture type when making repairs. For orange peel or knockdown finishes, use a spray texture product or a thinned joint compound applied with a roller or sponge. Practice on scrap drywall or cardboard first. Once dry, lightly sand and prime before painting.

While it is possible to repair minor plaster cracks or holes yourself, it is generally not recommended for larger jobs or if you want a professional result. Plaster repair can be difficult in practice; proper wall preparation and achieving a smooth, seamless finish that blends with the existing wall requires experience, especially on textured surfaces. Hiring a professional ensures the repair will be durable and last longer, potentially saving you money over time. A pro can also determine if the cracks are from normal expansion or a more serious underlying issue.

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.

Repairs typically take 2-4 hours for small areas. Larger or more complex repairs may require additional time.

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.
