"I recently purchased a home in Apex, and I needed to have the polybutylene plumbing pipes replaced which required the opening up of sheet rock walls and ceilings. Silas came on time to give me an estimate on the patching and painting of the walls and ceilings. I received the estimate a day later for a fair price and Silas scheduled the job promptly and completed the work quickly. The patching and painting were expertly done and matched the existing walls and ceiling. I will definitely be hiring him again when I decide to paint the entire interior of the home."

"My renovation involved the removal of a wall and every wall surface had to be refinished including the ceiling.  Plaster Solutions' craftsmanship exceeded my highest expectations.  Abel's attention to detail in older historical homes is excellent!"

"Painted on popcorn was removed from my ceiling and kitchen to reveal an insensitive amount of plaster damage to the ceiling. One contractor told me it could not be fixed. I found Clean Hands and they were quick to respond, gave me a quote, and started on the work the next day. The crew was professional and considerate. I would recommend them to anyone who needs plaster work done. It's difficult to find a contractor that will work with plaster, but these guys did an excellent job."

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

Whether you can install or repair plaster yourself depends on the project's size and your comfort level with DIY projects. It's possible to handle small repairs on your own, but for larger projects like a room restoration or a full installation, it's often best to hire a local plaster professional. The final appearance, even coverage, and durability of the plaster depend heavily on proper wall preparation and application. If you are not 100% confident in your ability to achieve a professional result, letting an expert handle the job is a worthwhile investment.

Yes, you can apply new plaster over an existing plaster surface, such as a wall or ceiling, provided the old plaster is in good condition. Before you begin, check the stability of the existing plaster. The surface must be clean, free of loose material, and have no peeling paint. It is also recommended to roughen the surface slightly to promote adhesion. For older plaster, applying a base coat like a PVA emulsion or a specific bonding agent or primer is crucial. This step makes the existing plaster less porous and ensures the new and old layers adhere properly for a smooth, long-lasting finish.

You can repair plaster ceilings yourself after the cause of the ceiling damage has been addressed. However, the repair can easily take 5 hours and can be slightly challenging for those without previous experience. If you do decide to flex your DIY muscle, have a helper to help hold the ladder and pass you the tools for safety purposes.
