"I highly recommend Rigo and his team for any remodeling or home building project. All Team Members were knowledgeable on all aspects of our kitchen remodel. Rigo and his Team provided cost saving solutions, and were responsible and accountable for all work performed. Rigo and his Team took all measurementà ¢à  à  s in our kitchen, and even went to the store with us where our cabinets were purchased to ensure we were getting what we wanted. At the store, Rigo made cost saving recommendations that helped tremendously. Rigo and his Team provided solutions when necessary and upon completion of their work, made sure we were satisfied with his work and our kitchen upgrade. All work was as promised, and their work is a great example of how far Rigo goes to ensure his customers are satisfied."

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

Plaster that sags or bulges, shows extensive deep cracks, or is crumbling from water damage or simply time may need replacement. Plaster walls can look a little “worn” for a long time before they need replacing. The only real way to know if it needs a replacement is to hire a professional to assess the condition of the plaster.

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.

You can repair plaster ceilings yourself after the cause of the ceiling damage has been addressed. However, the repair can easily take 5 hours and can be slightly challenging for those without previous experience. If you do decide to flex your DIY muscle, have a helper to help hold the ladder and pass you the tools for safety purposes.

Yes, you can install drywall over plaster, but there are important factors to consider. While it can create a smooth, flat surface, it is often not the best approach. Installing drywall over plaster will increase the wall's thickness, which can cause issues with existing window and door frames that may no longer fit. You might also need to adjust power outlets to keep them accessible. A better, though more expensive, option is to remove the old plaster and lath entirely before installing new drywall. Drywalling directly over plaster seals in the old material, and if any problems arise later, you will need to remove both layers down to the structural beams for repairs. Given the potential complications, this job is best handled by professionals.

Costs range from $200 to $800, depending on the area size and damage severity.
