"Mike and his team are exceptional!! We couldnâ t have asked for a better contractor!! Heâ s very reliable, performs quality work at at a very reasonable price. We used him for our basement remodel and are planning on using him on future projects we have planned. Heâ s one of the best contractors we have ever hired. At a time due to the pandemic when finding a good contractor that arrives on schedule and does quality work is difficult he didnâ t disappoint. Our basement looks gorgeous. I highly recommend hiring him. Heâ s does all aspects of a remodeling job, eliminating the need to seek multiple contractors to complete the work."

"When confronted with a crisis because of a copper plumbing burglary, Mr. Grady, of Grady's Painting, Plastering and Construction, willingly traveled many miles to come to my aid. Requesting only a $1.00 deposit against a $4,500.00 job, he masterfully reconstructed my nineteenth century lath and plaster hallway wall, also thoroughly compensating for a missing portion of a central stud unwittingly removed by a plumber! After his extensive search for appropriate composition and dimension of material, he replaced and replicated a section of my forty-year-old faux onyx tub surround with common white PVC sheet, tinted oil-based colors, glaze, paint brush, and a rag. His applied natural talents and superlative skills saved me thousands of dollars! On the basis of both professional conversation and knowledgeable observation, Mr. Grady possesses the intrinsic knowledge of old-world trades, the artistic capabilities, the problem=solving thought processes, and the personal work ethic to accomplish a broud scope of reconstruction and restoration."

"In 2014 Matthew Mulcahy repaired a hole in our living room ceiling from a bathroom leak and also textured the ceiling in the living room, stairwell and hallway in 2014. We live in an old house and the ceilings were cracked with plaster and lath underneath. He did an excellent job and our old ceilings looked new! We recently (Dec 2021) had a leak in our bathroom that caused a hole in the same spot. Ugh, I thought we would need the entire ceiling redone. But Matthew was able to repair the damaged area and match the texturing from years ago - all at a very reasonable price. He is friendly, professional and extremely neat. The work he did was in the midst of our Christmas tree and decorations and he cleaned the area to better than he found it! Thanks Matthew! I highly recommend him."

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

If you’re looking for a reliable plaster repair company, you should start by researching local companies in your area and reviewing their status with the Better Business Bureau. Next, you can contact the potential companies to ask about experience levels, get a list of references, and ask for examples of past work. If you have a textured wall, consider asking if they have examples or references for that particular texture. This method should help you narrow your search even further. You may also want to ask each company if they provide a warranty for their work.

Although they are used for similar tasks, spackle and joint compound are not the same. Joint compound, also known as drywall mud, consists of limestone and gypsum and is primarily used for large-scale projects like taping and finishing seams on new drywall. Spackle is composed of gypsum and binding agents, making it a thicker compound best suited for small wall repairs like filling nail holes or cracks, as it dries quickly and is easy to sand. For small repairs, either product can be suitable. However, you can use joint compound for small jobs in place of spackle, but you cannot use spackle for large-scale taping and mudding projects.

The tool you use to sand plaster will depend on the size of the project. If you’re just working on a small section of your wall to get rid of an uneven spot on the surface, hand-sanding might work. However, for larger projects, a drywall sander can make a huge difference when it comes to both time and elbow grease—and an orbital sander can help for detailed areas such as around ceiling fans.

Your walls are likely cracking due to fluctuations in the temperature outside. Drywall tends to expand and contract when temperatures and humidity levels change, and this repeated movement can lead to cracks in your walls, particularly around door frames. If you have multiple diagonal cracks, you may want to have your foundation inspected, as cracks can also be a sign of a bigger issue.

Venetian plaster is a highly durable wall finish that becomes a rock-like substance once dried, making it last longer than most other wall finishes. Its lifespan can range from decades to centuries, potentially lasting a lifetime. Key factors influencing its longevity include the quality of the initial application, whether it's properly sealed against moisture, and how the wall is maintained and treated (e.g., how often it is touched or bumped). Due to its mineral content, it can also develop a patina over time.
