"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."

"Leon was great. He was very clean, courteous and went above and beyond. He also touched up a few things without me even asking. He price was very fair. I am recommending him to friends and family and will have a few other projects to do with him."

"I have never been so pleased!!! Alberto and his crew were hands-down the most responsive, skilled and dedicated workers I have ever had the honor of hiring. My 1877 house has all-plaster walls and this room had major cracks across the walls and ceiling (see BEFORE photos). I had three bids, and Alberto was the only one who really knew how to handle the job. One guy wanted to sheetrock over the ceiling, another was going to treat it like sheet rock with taping and joint compound and another just said he'd spackle. Alberto knew just what to do to repair it and I knew he knew because an old friend of mine had done the same approach years ago on some cracks in a different room. It took three days just to prep and repair the walls and ceiling. Once they moved on to painting, this too was complicated because I had three different colors and molding and trim work. I couldn't believe how smooth my walls and ceiling were and how gorgeous my bookcase looked (see AFTER photos). I also added a hallway because I was so pleased with what they were doing I didn't want them to leave. Besides the exceptional quality of the workmanship, I have to comment now on the fact that they cleaned up each day and showed up when they said they would. What put me over the roof was the fact that Alberto said they would come on a Saturday because he wanted to get the job done by Tuesday (and I had added more work). Saturday was a major snow storm. I live on a big hill that wasn't even plowed but sure enough Alberto and his crew showed up in a four-wheel vehicle to get the job done. I already am planning my next painting project for them. I have had a lot of workers doing many jobs on my house over the years and Alberto is the ONLY one I have ever been fully satisfied with. I confidently and highly recommend them."

Plaster Repair FAQs, answered by experts

This depends on how much plaster is applied and in how many layers, but a decent estimate is around 150 square feet. If you are applying only two coats on a small wall, there is a chance you may only need one or two gallons for the entire project. If you are plastering a large living room wall with high ceilings, using one of the more involved techniques–like Scagliola–that requires several coats, expect the project materials costs to add up quickly. 

Plaster ceilings can sag for several reasons. In some cases, the plaster and other building materials shift and come apart over time, which is why you’ll commonly find drooping plaster ceilings in older homes. Improper installation, foot traffic, and water damage—often from a leaky roof or a broken pipe—can also cause plaster ceilings to sag.

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.

On average, repairing a ceiling costs anywhere from $450 to $1,750. However, there are many variables that can impact the price of this project. For example, the type of ceiling material, type and extent of the damage, and local labor rates all affect your costs. Holes and cracks are less expensive to fix, while structural issues and water damage are pricier problems.

To maintain plaster walls, inspect them regularly for cracks and seal them early. Clean the walls by dusting regularly or using a gentle, damp cloth. It's also important to avoid moisture exposure. Repainting as needed will help maintain the wall's appearance and longevity.
