"We had leaks coming from two chimneys and we found Apple Valley Stucco on Home Advisor. Sebastian and his crew did an outstanding job of not only replacing the existing stucco on both but repairing one that had been badly damaged. Their work met the highest professional standards. The chimneys were painted to match the house, and they completely cleaned up the porch and yard where some debris had accumulated. They did the work on time and within the estimated cost. I recommend them without reservation."

"Nathan Nate was fantastic! He did a beautiful and thorough job on the task I hired him for. I then asked if he could do a few handyman repairs for me, like getting a bi-fold closet door back on its track and getting my doorbell to work. He easily completed these tasks. He even found a few things that needed repair that I didnâ t see. All of this was a tremendous help to me as I prepared to sell my home. With his help, my home sold 4 hours after it was listed!"

"Heath is very personable and prompt in answering phone calls before the job. He made "Special" pricing discounts to meet the cost restrictions I had. Some material aspects of the job needed to be cut back from other estimates I had gotten and were agreed upon. The starting and ending dates had to be postponed due to weather. After starting the job, it still took longer than expected. Heath did not supervise the job as he had indicated he would. He was more interested in getting another business started. The crew was friendly but not a regular crew. They were friends whose business was bad and they were helping Heath out. Some details of the job were not discussed beforehand and caused concern during the job but I felt I had no recourse once felt was left off half the house and roofing applied before the hole in the roof was patched. The roof patch done from the inside was not of the material specified in the contract and seems messily done. Here again, I didn't feel I could get it redone once installed. Clean up was not done well. They did not place tarps to catch all the debris inside the house and garage when taking off the roof. Even with having the crew come back a second time for cleanup, I still have a lot cleanup to do myself. Pieces of asphalt and grit and roofing nails cover the attic insulation and everything in my garage, and are scattered in my lawn aroung the house. The men on the job started out by putting ice breaks over the fron door and said they would put them over all doors, but, left the job without them. Heath came by for payment saying he had written checks to the crew which he couldn't cover. So, I gave him a check and a list of the things which had not been completed. I had seen leftover sheets of roofing material for completing the ice breaks before they left. When they returned the next week to complete the unfinished tasks, tiny pieces of metal roofing were cut and screwed on top of the roof rather than being shaped of larger sheets and installed under the lip of the roof as the first ones had been. That was how I expected the job to be done. I was not able to get the roof quarantee and tax credit paperwork from Heath. Once he received his last check, he stopped answering my calls or messages. He gave me a five year quarantee on the workmanship but doesn't answer calls. I think sheets of leftover material and the excess special screws I paid for should have been left with me for possible future use or I should have at least been consulted before their removal."

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

If your premixed drywall mud is dried out or has begun to set in the bucket, you may be able to revive it by adding warm water and stirring. However, the first and most important step is to scrape off any hard, dried bits of drywall that may have accumulated toward the top of the container and throw them away because they will not easily reconstitute back into the drywall mud mix.

You can put certain types of plaster over other types, but doing so isn't always the best idea. For example, putting a coat of gypsum over lime plaster is possible, but doing so will limit the lime plaster's breathability and potentially affect its performance.

Since cement plaster tends to leave a textured surface, no matter how much you smooth it, some people prefer to use gypsum plaster as a topcoat over cement plaster, creating a smoother surface.

You can technically just paint over hairline cracks in plaster since these cracks are often harmless, but this will mostly be a waste of paint. Paint will only hide the hairline crack for a few months before it shows up again. The best solution is to repair the crack with flexible filler or joint compound before repainting.

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.

Technically speaking, you can use drywall primer over plasters. However, oil-based primers work the most effectively on wall plasters. Meanwhile, water-based primers work just as well with drywalls. Nowadays, there are also universal primers suitable for drywall and plaster. Overall, you will be fine as long as you are using a trustworthy brand.
