"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!"

"First, you can't help but like Heath Slavin. He's upbeat and hustles. There were serious problems with the quality of some of the work performed, however. One long joint where the wall met the ceilng in the attic looked more like a snake than a straight line. I called it to Heath's attention, and he corrected it fine. Their pressure washer broke down and they had to rent a substitute which didn't have the capability of adding cleaner, so the trim up high just got water. The operator of the pressure washer apparently didn't know much about the job, and he stripped paint from wood in a number of places, and even stripped out the top layer of the composite concrete siding. When I called all this to Heath's attention it also was corrected to my complete satisfaction. Additionally, the concrete step was to be two levels, and they did only one, and I'm completely unsatisfied with the one level that actually was done. Unfortunately, I didn't notice this until I had already paid in full for the job and the crew had left. I had difficulty contacting Heath to tell him about this additional problem, and only succeded when I decided to use his wife as a go between. It's been two weeks now since he said he'd come back & fix the steps, and I haven't seen anything of him yet. Finally, most of the crew was very polite and cleaned up after themselves meticulously. The folks who did the concrete (I didn't see who they were) used my hose, left it and the hose wand pretty well covered with concrete residue, and didn't bother to put it back."

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

There are several warning signs that a ceiling crack is connected to a larger issue. For starters, if the crack is wider than 1/8 inch or longer than 12 inches, you might have a more serious problem. The same applies if you have multiple smaller cracks or cracks going across the ceiling and down the wall. In any of these situations, you should ask a professional to assess the damage.

Plaster can be a difficult DIY to master, especially if you plan to plaster an entire room, rather than patch a small area. Before you begin a plaster DIY project, you need to know which tools and type of plaster to use. It's also important to know how to prepare the surface and apply the plaster for a smooth finish. If that all sounds like a lot of work, you may prefer hiring a local plaster repair contractor to do the job.

Plaster walls typically last between 30 and 70 years, but depending on the quality of the materials and the moisture levels in the building, they can last for over 100 years. With expert application and consistent maintenance, plaster can even last for centuries. To extend its lifespan, it is important to have the plaster professionally installed, address any water damage promptly, and repair small cracks as they appear. Regular inspections by a professional can help identify and address concerning cracks before they become significant issues.

Many services include repainting to match the existing surface. Confirm with your provider.

The tool you use to sand plaster will depend on the size of the project. If you’re just working on a small section of your wall to get rid of an uneven spot on the surface, hand-sanding might work. However, for larger projects, a drywall sander can make a huge difference when it comes to both time and elbow grease—and an orbital sander can help for detailed areas such as around ceiling fans.
