"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."

"Mike is very friendly and courteous, as well as quite dedicated to doing a good job. When installing our new attic stairs and door, he spent numerous hours over two days. I saw him place the weatherstripping perfectly, and both this and the paint look excellent. As he works, he explains the steps of what he is doing. After finishing, he called later on to make sure that there were no problems. He is easy to contact and returns calls. I would therefore highly recommend Mike and Palma Construction."

"Richard is an absolutely stellar professional. He is fast, focused, thorough, tidy, and so on top of it all! I was truly impressed by him and by the work he did in my home recently. He is so well prepared, organized, on-time, and ready to work to get the job done efficiently and with excellence. His pricing is very reasonable and fair. On top of it all, he is kind, trustworthy, and I look forward to having him back for more work soon. I feel so lucky to have found him and it has taken so much stress out of my life knowing that I've got such an exceptional professional, licensed and insured, close to my neighborhood and at the ready--one who is highly talented, skilled, and ready to handle a wide range of repairs, maintenance, renovations, installations, and other types of jobs. Thank you so much, Richard, see you again soon!!!"

"This was a very involved plaster repair and remediation job, in a very old house. Grady is the only person (or company) who was willing to take on the job and drive all the way from Pennsylvania to our home in Northern Virginia. There are very few people who do this kind of work anymore (we really searched) and he is an expert in his field. We needed to work around his schedule, because he is in demand in the tri-state area, so it took awhile to schedule the work to begin... but it was worth it."

Project done by Val Construction. Val Construction did a beautiful job of making my second bathroom look like new. Thank you Val Construction for your hard work on yet another outstanding job. I might add I have been using their services for about one year. Very reliable. Hard workers. I can depend on them."

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

Professionals diagnose underlying causes, such as structural shifts or moisture problems, and apply appropriate solutions like reinforcement, patching, or sealing. These measures restore wall integrity and prevent recurrence, ensuring long-term stability.

If your home was built before the 1940s and was not remodeled in the past 50 or so years, you probably have plaster walls. Aside from assuming, there are some practical ways to tell if you have plaster walls, including the following: If you knock on the wall and it feels solid, not hollow, if you can’t insert a thumbtack easily, if there are cracks that look like spiderwebs, or if your home has curved, arched, or swirled walls, doorways, or window openings.

If you have an unfinished basement or attic, you could examine the backs of any finished walls to check, too.

If the holes in the plaster are small, you can fill them with layers of patching plaster until they’re filled. After it dries, you can sand the plaster and paint over it. If the hole is much larger, consider using bonding plaster first and then a layer of patching plaster, completing the process with sanding and a layer of paint.

Drying alone can take 1 to 4 hours to dry to the touch per plaster layer, but some types of plaster take several hours longer to dry. However, this doesn’t mean the job is done because plaster doesn’t fully harden until it cures, which can take a few days to a couple of weeks. It may take even longer if you’re building a new, pretty thick plaster wall. Allow the plaster to cure before painting it.

Common causes of ceiling cracks along drywall seams include poor drywall installation techniques, structural issues, truss uplift, and foundation problems. Temperature and humidity also play major roles in ceiling cracks flush with the wall. As the drywall shrinks and expands from major temperature changes or extreme humidity shifts, this can cause the drywall to crack.
