"I recently had MGM Group plaster my ceiling that caved in out of nowhere. In short, I couldn't be happier with the results. They were very well-priced, quick to respond, and professional throughout the process. A special shoutout to Z, class all the way —will hire again no questions asked."

"I met Jeff and milliy 2 years ago from a search online.they painted my kitchen and cabinets and did a wonderful job.hired them this year to paint and plaster rest of house. This was a tough job because it's an old house,solid walls,and a lot of repair work.they again did a beautiful job.the plastering and painting was done so well it looks like there was damage to begin with. I recommend them highly because they are professional,very hardworking and perfectionists.they clean up after they're done and show up when they say they will.i couldn't be happier with their work."

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

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.

This depends on how much plaster is applied and in how many layers, but a decent estimate is around 150 square feet. If you are applying only two coats on a small wall, there is a chance you may only need one or two gallons for the entire project. If you are plastering a large living room wall with high ceilings, using one of the more involved techniques–like Scagliola–that requires several coats, expect the project materials costs to add up quickly. 

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.

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.

Plaster is a pretty tough surface, but it can still sustain damage from things like bumping against it, water issues, dampness, extreme humidity changes, and plain old age. Most plaster walls last hundreds of years and will only be taken down to the base layer when major repairs are required. Being cautious around the wall, not placing furniture against it, and ensuring stable humidity are all great ways to reduce possible damage.
