"Mike Motto actually reached out to me when He saw I was on Home Advisor for a ready to hire paint job. He is professional and detail oriented. He came out to see what I needed, and had an estimate back to me within a few days, and we were under contract in less than a week from our first meeting. The guys came out to paint and do some drywall and door repairs and all was said and done within 2 weeks of our first meeting. I never thought it would be possible to leave painting professionals in my home unattended working , so I could go to work, but that exactly what I did. Mike assured me that he does a background check on his employees and he is insured as well. I Will definitely hire Elite Contracting again with great confidence!! So should Anyone else (:"

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Plaster provides a durable, soundproof, and moisture-resistant finish compared to drywall.

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.

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.

The easiest way to tell if a wall is load bearing is to check if it’s an exterior wall or if it runs perpendicular to the joists above and below it (or parallel to beams). Exterior walls are almost always load-bearing, and walls that run under beams or parallel to them are also usually load-bearing. There are exceptions to these rules, and walls that don’t fit into these categories can still be load-bearing. If you’re unsure, hire a structural engineer to look at your home to assess whether or not the wall is structural.

The short answer is yes, a sagging plaster ceiling is dangerous. Sagging plaster on a wall is something you should fix immediately, but it isn’t a major concern. If the same type of sagging occurs on a ceiling, however, you could be in danger of your ceiling falling in large chunks. When plaster sags, it loses its strength and ability to hold itself up. The bonds that hold it together are strong, though, so if a sagging area falls, it will take large pieces down with it.
