"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."

"Randy and his crew did an excellent job in my basement. They carried down and installed close to 100 boards in a day and a half, then came back 3 times to do the tape/spackle work. I’m very pleased with their work, promptness and cleanup. He gave me a fair price and I will certainly recommend them to other people!"

"Danny and his team did an amazing job. It's been a few weeks, but we still look around and comment on how glad we are to have hired Danny. First, he seemed to actually care about the house when he came by to give an estimate. We could tell he cared about his job as well when he commented on colors and noticed things like the trims and ceilings. Other painters just nitpicked on whether we wanted x, y and z painted in each room. With Danny, common sense prevailed and he knew we just wanted everything painted.
He helped spackle and patch up holes and cracks that were here w/ the previous owner. He even fixed things like an uneven trim that was hanging low, and missing trim near the bottom of the floor in the master bedroom. Those things bothered me when we got the house, but I thought we'd just get them fixed "one day." Well Danny's a perfectionist. Without us even asking, he offered to fix them and did such a great job. He has such an eye for detail and helped transform this place from an old house to one that feels new and fresh.
He was also really patient as we took time to pick our paint colors. He had his guys work on other rooms when we couldn't decide on a few rooms. When we stopped by, his guys were always nice, friendly and respectful of our home. We were happy with how Danny and his crew really cared about their work.
The paint job itself is beautiful and neat. It just feels like a completely different house, and we have Danny to thank for that. One other huge positive - the cleanup job. We were around the last day and were struck by how much time they spent cleaning up the place including vacuuming. They left the house immaculate, and even stayed til midnight to do so. We worked with another contractor prior to Danny, and they left the house such a mess that I was beyond upset. But like I said, Danny's a perfectionist so he was the complete opposite. Hire him - we would again, without a doubt.

"Professional, did exactly what needed to be done at the price he gave at the estimate, punctual arrival time. Would definitely recommend and use him again. Mario replaced a 3 foot by 2 foot piece of sheet rock with a spackling job that the painter raved above several times on how he has not seen a spackling job like Mario did to many times, an excellent job was performed w/o ever realizing the ceiling was repaired. Over all an excellent job, truly a home advisor pro. Thanks again"

Plaster Repair FAQs, answered by experts

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.

Costs depend on damage size, labor rates, and whether additional services like painting are required.

All plaster walls will crack over time due to normal house settling and expansion and contraction from temperature and moisture changes. Small, thin hairline cracks are generally not serious and are mostly a cosmetic issue. However, larger or more significant cracks can indicate structural problems.

Here's how to tell the difference:

  • Cosmetic Cracks: Cracks that are 0.5 cm (0.2 inches) or thinner are typically cosmetic.

  • Structural Cracks: Cracks wider than 0.5 cm, excessive or deep cracks, multiple cracks in the same area, or cracks that span around corners can signify a structural or foundation issue. Cracks along the joints where walls meet the ceiling also warrant attention.

For cracks wider than 0.5 cm, structural repair is needed. If a crack is 2.5 cm (1 inch) or wider, or if you notice any signs of a structural problem, it is best to contact a plaster repair professional to assess the 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.

If your premixed drywall mud is dried out or has begun to set in the bucket, you may be able to revive it by adding warm water and stirring. However, the first and most important step is to scrape off any hard, dried bits of drywall that may have accumulated toward the top of the container and throw them away because they will not easily reconstitute back into the drywall mud mix.
