Customers say: True professional

"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."

"The owner provided a quote and performed all services in accordance with the quote.  He was very knowledgeable and helped educate us to the process. Although we had a very slightly lower bid from another vendor, we decided that BluSky would provide a better service.  They were more confident, seemed better prepared, and more professional.  I was concerned about protecting my expensive floors and household fixtures from any damage during the process, and the owner gave me confidence that they would take care to cover surfaces and take safeguards to prevent scratches, etc.  And they did!  The work was done on time and the results are excellent.  It is impossible to tell that there was ever any water damage to my home.  The quality of drywall/plaster work was "high end" and perfectly matched the other surfaces in my home.   I was very pleased.

Bob Reule, Jay Adams (Foreman) and crew were extremely professional and the work was completed on schedule.  This work included cleaning and conditioning of a conventional stucco surface, which had been painted, and the application of a STO Powerwall stucco product.  This work also included repair of a water damaged exterior wall and windows sills which were not discovered until surface preparations began.  The overall quality of work and attention to detail was excellent.  The crew was punctual, courteous and did an excellent job cleaning the worksite on a daily basis.  The Foreman made frequent site visits and was always available if questions arose.  As an engineer, I appreciated the technical knowledge and experience that Bob and his Foreman brought to this project and their willingness to discuss the science behind the STO product line and construction materials.  Bob also spend considerable time with us discussing ideas to help us complete other aspects of this exterior remodeling project.  If you want quality, Reule Sun Corp. should be on the top of your list.

"Bill did an excellent job of filling, sanding, and painting the columns, vigas, and latillas. For the wood under the portal where we wanted to maintain stain, he did a beautiful job of matching the wood and making the filled areas look natural. He also painted our ductwork and other metal components to color match the stucco, repairing the stucco in a few places along the way. Bill is extremely reliable, meticulous in his cleanup, and fairly priced. Our next door neighbors saw Bill's work and hired him for their project."

"It went great! They were very quick to respond and get me on the schedule. Before the repair, they showed care and concern for my home by going above and beyond in preventative work. At no cost, he put a tarp over my roof to prevent leaking when a storm was coming. He also was very communicative with my insurance company to ensure the job was done in full and correctly. I would highly recommend him."

"Sodo Construction is great. They repaired my roof that had severe hail damage. They were on time, professional and efficient. Not only did my roof come out beautiful, they cleaned up after and even came out to ask how I liked it and if there was any issues. None from me. I am going to request their service again on future plans and additions to my house. I worked with Sarah Jaramillo directly and she answered all my questions and concerns. Use Sodo Construction, you will not be disappointed."

"I made the appointment to redeem my Big Deal with no problem.  Even so, no one showed up at the appointed time.  A half hour after the service provider was to arrive, I called the owner, Michael Ortiz, who apologized and got off the phone to call his crew.  He called me back in a few minutes, and said that he would personally come over and do the job himself.  He arrived promptly 20 minutes later and swiftly and expertly completed my drywall repair job.  He was very professional and courteous.  I will use hime again.

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

Technically speaking, you can use drywall primer over plasters. However, oil-based primers work the most effectively on wall plasters. Meanwhile, water-based primers work just as well with drywalls. Nowadays, there are also universal primers suitable for drywall and plaster. Overall, you will be fine as long as you are using a trustworthy brand.

Plastering and skimming are two different techniques for finishing walls. Plastering involves applying a thick layer of a plaster mixture—typically containing gypsum, lime, cement, sand, and water—to create a new surface. This process often requires multiple coats and is used for repairing significant damage or creating decorative textures. Skimming, on the other hand, is a technique that involves applying a thin layer of drywall compound or joint compound over an existing surface to smooth it out, covering minor imperfections, small cracks, or uneven textures for a polished look. Plastering is generally more costly and labor-intensive than skimming. Although some people use the terms interchangeably, they refer to different processes and materials.

While it’s most common to sand plaster dry, it is possible to wet-sand plaster, too. Doing so can reduce the amount of plaster dust released into the air and make it easier to work in smaller, more delicate areas (such as around wall trim). However, some people find that wet sanding leads to more imperfections, which is why larger walls are more often dry sanded to ensure an even finish.

How long it takes to repair a ceiling depends on the extent of the damage. Patching a small hole might only take a few minutes, while repairing a water-damaged section of the ceiling could take hours. If there are structural issues, expect your ceiling repair to take several days or longer.

While it is possible to repair minor plaster cracks or holes yourself, it is generally not recommended for larger jobs or if you want a professional result. Plaster repair can be difficult in practice; proper wall preparation and achieving a smooth, seamless finish that blends with the existing wall requires experience, especially on textured surfaces. Hiring a professional ensures the repair will be durable and last longer, potentially saving you money over time. A pro can also determine if the cracks are from normal expansion or a more serious underlying issue.
