"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."

"We couldn’t be happier with our two new bathrooms! The entire renovation, from start to finish, was a top-notch experience. We’ve never had the pleasure of working with a contractor as knowledgeable, reliable, detail-oriented, and respectful of our home as Fabian. He is highly skilled and has a great vision. The bathrooms look amazing—highly recommend!"

"Had some very challenging problems in my home and he was able to assess them correctly and work with me in reaching a plan to my satisfaction. Blitz (Eric) is particularly skilled in plastering, caulking and painting and he encountered some very challenging crown molding issues. We discovered a serious issue which my engineer missed two years ago when I purchased this property and he corrected it, as additional work at a very reasonable rate of compensation. His thoroughness averted a potentially threatening fire hazard! His experience & techniques resulted in a more than satisfied customer."

"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

If you already have plaster walls and ceilings, adding new plaster costs $2 to $10 per square foot. For an average-sized room, that would come out to $1,200 to $10,000. However, the cost to replace plaster with drywall is higher—running between $720 and $1,250 for a 10-by-8-foot wall or ceiling (not including drywall finishing).

Yes, you can speed up the time it takes for plaster to dry, but it's important to do so carefully to avoid issues like cracking or crumbling. Proper ventilation is key; open a window or use a fan to circulate air in the room. Heat can also accelerate drying, but be cautious, as too much heat can cause the plaster to dry too quickly and crack. Check the plaster's packaging for the recommended drying temperature and set the room's thermostat accordingly. While managing humidity is important, avoid using a dehumidifier, which can remove moisture too aggressively and result in crumbly plaster.

Damp plaster does dry out, although the drying time depends on several factors, including the type of plaster, the surrounding temperature, moisture content, and the extent of the dampness. Sometimes, it can take weeks or months for wall plaster to dry naturally.

Yes, you can install drywall over plaster, but there are important factors to consider. While it can create a smooth, flat surface, it is often not the best approach. Installing drywall over plaster will increase the wall's thickness, which can cause issues with existing window and door frames that may no longer fit. You might also need to adjust power outlets to keep them accessible. A better, though more expensive, option is to remove the old plaster and lath entirely before installing new drywall. Drywalling directly over plaster seals in the old material, and if any problems arise later, you will need to remove both layers down to the structural beams for repairs. Given the potential complications, this job is best handled by professionals.

Common causes include water leaks, settling, and impact. Address underlying issues to prevent recurring damage.
