"Group did a total gut of a master bath for me (photos online). From the demo with hidden problems to install of a walk-in shower, 3RM were great! During the 6 weeks, I was allowed to make suggestions on design, structure, placement without running into interference. Even when finished with the remodel, Joel came back to handle minute issues like shower handle direction and handicap bars. They also came back a couple of weeks laters to demo my back deck and rebuild it, again allowing my input into the construction, which is probably the greatest feature of hiring these guys to do your home repair and build."

"Had to pay money to Johnson's Drywall for materials before he could start. My experience with subcontractors/handymen is that you pay when the job is finished. He should of been upfront about needing money for materials. Paid $400 up front for materials, but was refunded $100.00 for materials not used."

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

You can skim coat plaster, but it’s better to repair the plaster itself. A skim coat is a thin coat of drywall joint compound spread over the surface of a wall. The result is a flat finish that looks pleasing, but part of the appeal of plaster is its imperfections and aesthetic. Skim coating is best when limited to drywall applications.

Yes, you can use drywall repair techniques for some types of plaster damage. Tiny holes and small cracks in plaster can be patched in similar ways to drywall. You apply the necessary compound to fill the hole, wait for it to dry, then sand it down. For larger damage, like water damage or mold, you need to use plaster-specific techniques and materials.

Wondering who to call for ceiling repair? While you can hire a handyperson to fix minor cracks, you’ll want to hire a drywall professional for larger issues. Depending on the cause of the crack, you may need to hire other contractors, such as a foundation contractor, mold remediation company, roofer, or plumber near you.

If you already have plaster walls and ceilings, adding new plaster costs $2 to $10 per square foot. For an average-sized room, that would come out to $1,200 to $10,000. However, the cost to replace plaster with drywall is higher—running between $720 and $1,250 for a 10-by-8-foot wall or ceiling (not including drywall finishing).

You’ll want to inspect your plaster walls for signs of damage before painting. If you notice soft spots, deep cracks, bubbling, or areas where the plaster is crumbling or pulling away from the wall, it likely needs repair. While small hairline cracks are common and likely cosmetic, you should address larger issues before painting to ensure a quality, smooth finish.
