"Michael did an amazing job! I had a TV mounted on the wall with all the cables running through the inside, so after taking it down, the wall needed quite a bit of repair. Michael came in, looked everything over, repaired the drywall, filled all the holes, and painted the entire wall. When he was done, you couldn’t even tell a TV had ever been mounted there. He also painted a small workroom for me at no extra charge, which was really nice of him. Everything came out great, and I’m very happy with his work. I’ll definitely be calling Michael again to paint the other two rooms in my apartment. Highly recommend him!"

"We found Gustavo on Angi and hired him to repair damage from a leaking pipe that damaged our ceiling. He was professional, courteous, and did an excellent job repairing the damaged ceiling ( including disinfection) and painting . He and his team left our house spotless. The ceiling looks brand new. We will definitely use his services again."

"Fabia recently did a total renovation of my bathroom down to studs. The end result was a 10/10. He was punctual every day and conferred w me continually, providing advice and tips every step of the way. The finished product is a masterpiece in tiling. Of all contractors used in 30 yrs as a homeowner, I rate him at the top. He has been asked to return for a 2nd bathroom fix and will be our man for a future kitchen redo."

"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."

"KMC Home Improvement is possibly the best company we've ever worked with. We hired Klever (the owner) and his crew to repair and skim coat the old plaster walls in our main bathroom and install a new sink/vanity, new toilet, new base molding and window casing, and then to paint the room. The final product looks amazing. Klever and his men arrived early each day, worked hard and quickly, and paid great attention to detail. Klever is a real perfectionist and a real pro. He clearly has a lot of experience in the field. When they were finished with the bathroom, we asked if he would patch and paint the ceiling and walls in an adjacent bedroom, which was accomplished in an equally professional manner. We look forward to using KMC contracting again, and can recommend them without reservation."

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

Applying plaster to a wall will usually cost between $2 and $10 per square foot for both the material and labor. The cost will vary based on the quality of the plaster you’re using and whether or not prep work is required before the work begins. Wall prep can add up to about 10% to your total costs. Plastering exterior walls can be more expensive in many cases because they are taller and require scaffolding and safety equipment.

While it is possible to repair minor plaster cracks or holes yourself, it is generally not recommended for larger jobs or if you want a professional result. Plaster repair can be difficult in practice; proper wall preparation and achieving a smooth, seamless finish that blends with the existing wall requires experience, especially on textured surfaces. Hiring a professional ensures the repair will be durable and last longer, potentially saving you money over time. A pro can also determine if the cracks are from normal expansion or a more serious underlying issue.

Installing or repairing plaster on ceilings differs slightly from performing the same motions on a wall. You’ll apply slightly less plaster to lower the overall weight of the ceiling. Wall texturing is common, whereas most ceilings are smooth plaster. Tough coat plaster is strong, meaning you can use less while retaining a solid surface.
