"Micah is a wizard with plaster color and texture. He fixed our Variance plaster, matching it perfectly. He was punctual, professional, and did an amazing job fixing our rotunda, which is the showcase of our residence. We had been told that there was no way to match the texture and color and we would have to pay thousands of dollars to replanted the entire rotunda. Micah was able to fix everything for a fraction of the cost. We highly recommend Illusions for any work of this type."

"I hired them to do a patch job on drywall where we once had a pellet stove exhaust pipe, and to paint, install closet doors, and replace the floorboards. I was EXTREMELY HAPPY with the work performed. Communication was excellent, and they were very fast and responsive to all of our requests. The room now looks better than when it was brand new (thanks to the new doors). I would definitely recommend MGC Drywall and will be hiring them again for another drywall project."

"Having worked with Jose before on a roofing issue, I knew he was the professional to trust for our ceiling remodel. He and Adam took our ceiling from a generic orange peel to a stunning brocade texture. They protected our home, worked fast, and minimized disruption. If you need honest, skilled contractors who pay attention to detail, call this team. They made my wife’s vision a reality!"

"I recently had the pleasure of working with Barnes Builders on two major home improvement projects, and I couldn't be more satisfied with the results. I was so pleased with their work that I will be doing a third project with them to build a casita for my parents. I highly recommend Barnes Builders for any remodeling, renovation or new build needs. Kitchen and Bathroom Remodel, Flooring, Paint, and Drywall Refresh: From the very beginning, it was evident that Barnes Builders was dedicated to delivering top-notch work. Greg the owner always did a really thorough walk through to make sure he understood what I wanted to accomplish, and make sure all the timelines and potential pitfalls were talked about. It was also really helpful to review the progress of the project with him as the different team members worked to complete it, so I always knew what to expect. The craftsmanship and attention to detail was outstanding. The tile and cabinetry was all custom and required a lot of work around solutions because of the uneven adobe walls. But the tilers, plasterers and flooring guys did an exceptional and beautiful job and it all fell into place nicely. There were minor delays in the project timeline mainly because of the custom nature of the project, but the delays weren't too significant to affect my overall satisfaction. Greg always made sure to keep me well informed of the situation and progress. He and the other workers also always went above and beyond to make sure things were done well and the way that I wanted them. All the members of the Barnes Builders team seem to take a lot of pride in their work, and it truly shows in the final results."

"It went great as usual. The masonary/stucco wall looks like it was built with the house 25 years ago. Perfect style, texture and color match. Ordonez Construction has done several other projects at my home including a bridge over my arroyo, a Pergola for garden beds, a chicken coop, beautiful sandstone stairs leading to my arroyo and a glass greenhouse. I would use Carlos/Ordonez construction for any projects I may have in the future. The prices are very fair and the work is top notch. Courtney Conte, Placitas, NM."

FAQs for plaster repair projects in Albuquerque, NM

Applying plaster to a wall will usually cost between $2 and $10 per square foot for both the material and labor. The cost will vary based on the quality of the plaster you’re using and whether or not prep work is required before the work begins. Wall prep can add up to about 10% to your total costs. Plastering exterior walls can be more expensive in many cases because they are taller and require scaffolding and safety equipment.

Repairing plaster walls is almost always worthwhile. Not only will plaster repairs make your walls look new again, but repairs of minor cracks can often reinforce the plaster and help prevent the cracks from spreading and widening. Additionally, hiring a professional to carry out plaster wall repair means they can let you know if the cracking is a result of a severe underlying issue. Catching a problem like foundation instability early could save you thousands, a luxury you wouldn’t have if you just repaired the walls yourself.

Plaster repair costs range from $4 to $10 per square foot for refinishing, while skim coating can be less expensive, usually between $2 and $5 per square foot. The price you pay for plaster repairs will depend on the extent of the damage, the type of plaster you have on your walls, and the accessibility of the damage. Plaster repair on the exterior of your home tends to be more expensive, as there’s a higher chance that ladders or scaffolding will be necessary to carry out the repair.

It is possible to repair plaster walls yourself, but it’s not always a good idea. Hiring a professional means you’ll have expert eyes on the damage looking to see if there is an underlying issue or if the cracks are just from normal expansion and contraction. Additionally, a professional’s plaster repair will very likely last longer than a DIY job, which means you could end up saving money over time by going with a pro from the start.

All plaster walls will crack over time with expansion and contraction from temperature and moisture changes, as well as from normal house settling. In these cases, the cracks will usually be thin and don’t mean there are major structural issues. However, excessive cracking, wide wall cracks, and cracks that span around corners can sometimes mean you have a foundation issue. Identifying severe problems is a key reason why hiring a professional for plaster repair is usually a good idea.
