"Ferraz Plastering did a very professional job repairing a ceiling that was broken in a bedroom. They re plastered the entire ceiling, matching the pattern that was in the rest of the house. They are professional, knowledgeable and personable. They gave us options and explained the process. Also they arrived on time, performed the job efficiently and on time and cleaned very well once they were done. We highly recommend their services."

"Our family did a huge addition with a family basement(playroom) living room/dining room & master bedroom. Colin McCarthy's plastering was truly excellent!! He even did venetian plastering on my dining room ceiling. My husband & I were SO impressed by his work/work ethic. He was prompt, highly efficient & left the house clean every day. We enthusiastically recommend McCarthy plastering for ANY home remodeling!"

"Matt was super responsive and kind. He got in and did the job within days of us requesting a quote. We are finishing our basement which is cement blocks. We attempted to start to plaster and decided we could not do it. Matt and his team plastered the walls over where we had failed and made them look gorgeous. We were not home at the time and when we got home, our jaws dropped. Highly recommend."

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

Only use spackle on plaster walls when the imperfection is small. It’s best used for nail holes or small dings in the plaster. Spackle dries quickly, allowing you to continue the repair process shortly after using it. Plaster can be tricky to repair, though, so if you run into issues, call a pro so that you don’t risk further damage.

It is possible to apply plaster on the interior or exterior of your home, but we don’t recommend it. Plaster is easy to apply in theory, but in reality, it can be a challenging material to work with, and it’s difficult to get the finished product to look clean, even, and smooth. Many DIYers end up calling in a professional afterward to touch up the area or even redo it entirely because of mistakes they made in the process. Hiring a plaster pro will cost more, but it’s usually the best option to achieve high-quality results.

Yes, you can speed up the time it takes for plaster to dry, but it's important to do so carefully to avoid issues like cracking or crumbling. Proper ventilation is key; open a window or use a fan to circulate air in the room. Heat can also accelerate drying, but be cautious, as too much heat can cause the plaster to dry too quickly and crack. Check the plaster's packaging for the recommended drying temperature and set the room's thermostat accordingly. While managing humidity is important, avoid using a dehumidifier, which can remove moisture too aggressively and result in crumbly plaster.

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.

Smaller is better when patching holes with spackle. Any holes wider than four to six inches in diameter tend to be too wide to repair with spackle alone. You'll likely want to patch bigger holes with a drywall panel. 

Even holes measuring up to 6 inches may be challenging to fill with spackle alone. For best results, purchase a wall repair patch made from wire mesh. Cut the patch to fit over the hole, then use the spackle to hold it in place. Apply the spackle over the patch as you would for a smaller hole.
