"Doug and Tony from Bluebird Construction were great! From a quick response to our inquiry, to a house visit to assess our issues, to a timely return for a list of repairs, they were very professional. The projects were completed in a timely manner and much to our satisfaction! One challenging project involving hiding hanging cable wires in a basement room and the work took ingenuity and really turned out well. They clearly are knowledgeable and take pride in their work. We highly recommend Bluebird Construction for the quality of their work at a fair price! Bill & Carol Boynton"

"Because we were going away for an extended time, and insulation work by others had to be completed first, we had to schedule drywall workday NH Projects under a rather tight time frame. Despite uncooperative weather (lots of rain slowing the drying time), they managed to get everything done as needed, working around other scheduled work they had. They were prompt, professional, and a pleasure to interact with, in addition to doing excellent work."

Meeting somebody, being invited into their house, and listening to their ideas of how they would like to transform their space to better suit their needs excites me. It brings me immense pleasure to be welcomed on an idea based visual journey in creating a customized dwelling in order to improve the quality of function in somebody's daily home life. Bringing ideas to fruition is my specialty. With equal enjoyment in making those popcorn ceilings that you've adored for so long disappear in an array of smoothness, gutting the kitchen where nothing seems to fit anywhere, including the cook, and installing cabinets and lights that transform the "heart of the home" into a space you don't want to step out of, or erecting that garage and mudroom to get your cars out of the weather and the clutter out of your foyer. At Magic Frog Carpentry & Woodworks I live in a solutions based mentality.

"We hired Adam to convert our single-car garage into a bonus room (framing, drywall, electrical, flooring, moved a gas line, rerouted the hose spigot, and replaced the garage door with a slider). The quality is fantastic. I’d recommend him to anyone. What really stood out: Adam cared about the details. I had a rough vision, but when we hit decisions I hadn’t thought through, he’d flag it and, if I didn’t have a strong preference, steer me toward the right choice. He had a real vision for how it should look, not just doing the bare minimum or blindly following directions. The other thing was how clean he and any of his crew kept their workspace. This didn't actually matter since they were in a garage we weren't using, but every day it was immaculate, and all the material scraps were removed. Hire Adam because he delivers excellent workmanship, sweats the details, and helps you make smart decisions along the way. Plus, he runs a clean, organized job site."

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

It’s not a good idea to plaster over broken plaster (unless by broken you’re referring to cracked, in which case that’s perfectly fine). However, broken plaster can be a sign of a larger underlying issue like foundation damage or severe damage to the lath holding up the plaster, so it’s worth investigating before you simply plaster on top of the damage.

Although their applications are very similar, no drywall compound and spackle are not the same thing. Spackle is a bit thicker and is used to patch holes as it dries quickly and is easy to sand. Joint compound shrinks a bit more and can be more temperamental to spread. However, one benefit is that you can use joint compound as spackle (for small jobs), but you can’t use spackle as joint compound.  

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

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.

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.
