"I initially contacted H&M to repair drywall and paint. Henry convinced me to replace the popcorn ceiling and I am so glad he did. What a difference! I am very pleased with Henry and his team’s work. They were always pleasant and went out of their way to complete the job in a timely manner."

"Silas and his team are excellent. My mother is in her 80s and I have been looking for someone reliable and trustworthy. I don't live in the area and I needed someone that I could trust if I can't be there when the work is done. Silas is my guy. I have already discussed with him to remodel the bathroom. He will be my guy for all home repairs (large or small)."

"Elver and team were prompt and thorough. Another contractor told me I'd have to rip out drywall at considerable expense. Elver handled it as a repair job and the wall looks good as new."

"JW Quality Drywall is a premium contractor. They did an AWESOME job finishing 2 extra storage rooms with drywall, plastering, painting, trim and hardwood flooring. We were so pleased his team creatively framed shelving, and other existing structures. Walter saw this major renovation through to completion. We are extremely satisfied the job came out better than expected, there were no problems, and it was worth the cost. I would definitely recommend them."

"Tom Smith did a perfect job of repairing both a smooth ceiling and a textured ceiling, both of which had been damaged by water leaks. We think that he is unique in this area in being able to exactly match the appearance of textured ceilings. Others that we have approached can no longer do this kind of work. Tom was a pleasure to deal with and completed the job efficiently, neatly and very promptly. He answered our questions graciously and gave us two valuable recommendations that have been very helpful. We are glad we finally found a really great sheetrock expert."

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

Both plaster and drywall are durable wall finishes, but they differ significantly in installation, cost, performance, and aesthetics.

Installation & Cost: Drywall installation is faster and more affordable, typically costing $1.50 to $3 per square foot. It uses premade sheets, making it a more accessible DIY project. Plastering is a labor-intensive craft that requires specialized skills, pushing costs to $2 to $10 per square foot. It involves applying a wet paste over a lath framework.

Durability & Performance: Plaster is generally more durable, longer-lasting, and provides superior soundproofing. It is also a better insulator, which can help reduce energy costs. Drywall is easier to remove for future renovations.

Aesthetics: Drywall provides a smooth, uniform surface ready for paint or texture. Plaster offers a high-end, naturally textured look that can hide imperfections and is often preferred for achieving a classic or historic aesthetic.

Which is better? The choice depends on your priorities. Drywall is ideal for those prioritizing a lower upfront cost, faster installation, and DIY potential. Plaster is the better option for a higher-end project where durability, soundproofing, and a unique, premium finish are more important than the initial cost.

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.

How long it takes to repair a ceiling depends on the extent of the damage. Patching a small hole might only take a few minutes, while repairing a water-damaged section of the ceiling could take hours. If there are structural issues, expect your ceiling repair to take several days or longer.

If you’re looking for a reliable plaster repair company, you should start by researching local companies in your area and reviewing their status with the Better Business Bureau. Next, you can contact the potential companies to ask about experience levels, get a list of references, and ask for examples of past work. If you have a textured wall, consider asking if they have examples or references for that particular texture. This method should help you narrow your search even further. You may also want to ask each company if they provide a warranty for their work.

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.
