"We built our house in 2019 and used a different drywaller. He didn't prefill any of our corners. Within the year my house was separating, only in the winter. Alex came and fixed our entire home. Everywhere that was lifting he took the time and did the work correctly. Since he fixed them, none have cracked or separated again. I would never use anyone but Alex in the future. He was dependable, knowledgeable and cleaned up after himself."

"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."

"They did exactly what they promised, but they were really not a pleasure to work with. They came out. They didn't make it out for about three days. They solved the problem, but I can't say it was pleasant. They did what they did, but I wouldn't hire them again. He called me on a Wednesday, but he didn't make it out to the house until like Saturday. He just talked non-stop and he was kind of frustrating to work with. He fixed the problem in about two hours, but was not pleasant to work with. They did the job for no additional cost. There was some difficulty scheduling."

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

It is possible to apply plaster on the interior or exterior of your home, but we don’t recommend it. Plaster is easy to apply in theory, but in reality, it can be a challenging material to work with, and it’s difficult to get the finished product to look clean, even, and smooth. Many DIYers end up calling in a professional afterward to touch up the area or even redo it entirely because of mistakes they made in the process. Hiring a plaster pro will cost more, but it’s usually the best option to achieve high-quality results.

Common causes include water leaks, settling, and impact. Address underlying issues to prevent recurring damage.

It may take a bit of patience and trial and error to match your particular drywall texture type when making repairs. For orange peel or knockdown finishes, use a spray texture product or a thinned joint compound applied with a roller or sponge. Practice on scrap drywall or cardboard first. Once dry, lightly sand and prime before painting.

Smaller is better when patching holes with spackle. Any holes wider than four to six inches in diameter tend to be too wide to repair with spackle alone. You'll likely want to patch bigger holes with a drywall panel. 

Even holes measuring up to 6 inches may be challenging to fill with spackle alone. For best results, purchase a wall repair patch made from wire mesh. Cut the patch to fit over the hole, then use the spackle to hold it in place. Apply the spackle over the patch as you would for a smaller hole.

Plaster is a beautiful finish but is labor-intensive to install and remove. It’s vulnerable to cracking and more sensitive to moisture variance than drywall. Installing plaster on a new wall is an expensive process that can take days to weeks, depending on the scope. Removing a plaster wall can also be quite expensive and time-consuming.
