Highfield Joinery is a one man operation focusing in high-level historical knowledge and legacy materials, including linseed paint and putty, lime mortar, and high levels of salvage, dutchman repairs, patching, and "re-livening" wood considered unsalvageable. This can save thousands, especially for old doors and window sashes, attics, siding, and porches, while preserving the architectural integrity and therefore curb value others may not be aware of. Because of the age and uniqueness of each task, I use many hand tools which allow the flexibility and detail required, but also encourage the same results and even tool marks as the originals, and can be an absolute value over time as they may last just as long. I has become common to spend a year’s salary on a repair, only to find it failing or aged in just a short while. Our ethos is the opposite: to fix it so properly and accurately that it never needs to be looked at again in your lifetime. As the Originals Were.

"I have hired Eric for multiple furniture repairs/restorations(chairs, server/sideboard, dining table) and he has done an amazing job every time. Iâ ve been hesitant because a lot of antique furniture is just irreplaceable but everything he touches turns out beautiful. If you need someone to repair or restore your furniture, Eric is a 10/10 recommendation!"

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

Small hairline cracks in plaster walls are not serious and are mostly cosmetic, but larger or widespread cracks indicate structural problems that need repair. 

  • Cracks 0.5 cm (0.2 inches) or thinner: Cosmetic cracks you can repair if desired.

  • Cracks wider than 0.5 centimeters or widespread cracks: Structural repair is needed, either DIY or by a pro.

  • Cracks 2.5 centimeters (1 inch) or wider: Contact a plaster repair professional.

Watch for large, deep cracks, multiple cracks in the same area, and cracks along the walls where they meet the ceiling. Repair these cracks to prevent further damage.

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.

Once dried, Venetian plaster becomes a rock-like substance that’s durable and excellent at resisting damage. If properly sealed to resist moisture and maintained, Venetian plaster should last for at least a decade but potentially as long as a lifetime. Thanks to its mineral content, it can also develop a patina.

There are several warning signs that a ceiling crack is connected to a larger issue. For starters, if the crack is wider than 1/8 inch or longer than 12 inches, you might have a more serious problem. The same applies if you have multiple smaller cracks or cracks going across the ceiling and down the wall. In any of these situations, you should ask a professional to assess the damage.

Plaster walls last 30 to 70 years, although expertly applied and well-maintained plaster can last for centuries. That’s why it’s important to leave plaster installation to a pro, treat cracks as needed, and have a pro inspect any concerning cracks as soon as possible. These efforts can greatly extend the life of your plaster walls for decades to come.
