"Guy and his team did an excellent job from start to finish. They installed and/or repaired drywall in six rooms, including ceiling. They were very punctual and hard working. They did a good cleanup job afterwards. I have no complaints with their work and would hire them again in a heartbeat--highly recommend!"

"I contacted Tom Smith via the "Conversation with Provider" in My Messages on my Angie's List account on 02/02/2016. I included two photos (close-up and long shot) of the area that needed repair and asked for a estimated cost of repair. Tom responded later that same day with his estimate. On 02/11/2016, Tom arrived 10 minutes early for our morning appointment. He inspected the area that needed repair and told me how he would solve the problem. He added that he only does the drywall repair NOT the painting. Actually, I preferred to do the painting myself, so I agreed. He had all of the tools and materials he needed with him (even the fan used to speed drying of material), so he proceeded to construct the wooden foundation for the drywall repair. The whole job seemed to take about 3 hrs. He worked quickly. We talked occasionally, but most of the time seemed to be with constructing the wooden foundation and the drying time for the material. When he was finished, the surface was smooth, attractive, and blended well with the surrounding structure. The finish reminded me of the "smooth" coat that was applied over the "rough" of plaster-lath wall construction. He cleaned up the work area and the area on my driveway where he parked and did some cutting, etc. from his vehicle. When I painted the repaired area, the paint went on smoothly and I did not have to use primer. It blended beautifully with the surrounding structure. It looks great."

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

Plaster is a pretty tough surface, but it can still sustain damage from things like bumping against it, water issues, dampness, extreme humidity changes, and plain old age. Most plaster walls last hundreds of years and will only be taken down to the base layer when major repairs are required. Being cautious around the wall, not placing furniture against it, and ensuring stable humidity are all great ways to reduce possible damage.

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.

If the holes in the plaster are small, you can fill them with layers of patching plaster until they’re filled. After it dries, you can sand the plaster and paint over it. If the hole is much larger, consider using bonding plaster first and then a layer of patching plaster, completing the process with sanding and a layer of paint.
