"Gary called me the same day Servicemagic emailed me with his information and he left a message on my voice mail. I did not return his call because I was out of the office for a few days. Before I could return his call, he called me again. He was very professional and did an excellent job. I would definitely use him again and also recommend him to family and friends."

"After getting some ridiculously high quotes from other companies, I’m so glad I found Cajun Pride!! Mr. Gaudet was very friendly, professional and down to earth. He is a straight shooter, told me what needed to be done and how much everything would cost. His attention to detail and quality of work was worth every penny. He truly takes pride in what he does, which is so hard to come by nowadays. Thanks Cajun Pride!!!"

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

Costs range from $200 to $800, depending on the area size and damage severity.

Yes, you can install drywall over plaster, but there are important factors to consider. While it can create a smooth, flat surface, it is often not the best approach. Installing drywall over plaster will increase the wall's thickness, which can cause issues with existing window and door frames that may no longer fit. You might also need to adjust power outlets to keep them accessible. A better, though more expensive, option is to remove the old plaster and lath entirely before installing new drywall. Drywalling directly over plaster seals in the old material, and if any problems arise later, you will need to remove both layers down to the structural beams for repairs. Given the potential complications, this job is best handled by professionals.

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.

Yes, you can use drywall repair techniques for some types of plaster damage. Tiny holes and small cracks in plaster can be patched in similar ways to drywall. You apply the necessary compound to fill the hole, wait for it to dry, then sand it down. For larger damage, like water damage or mold, you need to use plaster-specific techniques and materials.

Venetian plaster is a highly durable wall finish that becomes a rock-like substance once dried, making it last longer than most other wall finishes. Its lifespan can range from decades to centuries, potentially lasting a lifetime. Key factors influencing its longevity include the quality of the initial application, whether it's properly sealed against moisture, and how the wall is maintained and treated (e.g., how often it is touched or bumped). Due to its mineral content, it can also develop a patina over time.
