"Christian did a great job repairing the plaster damage in our living room. He was fast and efficient. When he uncovered some structural damage behind one section of wall he explained what needed to be done and only added a small amount to the original estimate. He is friendly and professional. I would highly recommend him!"

"Tamer did a great job with our plaster repair project. He communicated well, showed up on time, and kept us apprised of his progress. He pays attention to detail and takes pride in his work. My only criticism is about clean up. Could have done better with clean up, but overall we are happy with his work and would hire him again."

"After initial consultation, determined that the kitchen wall above the refrigerator needed patching, painting, and replacement of moulding around the remaining cabinet. Also repaired a small wall in the living room and painted a small strip of wall in the hallway, with a start date of June 15 for $450. Showed up late, as he did for the next two days, with no message or phone contact stating he was running late. Proceeded to do the work and, by Wednesday afternoon, was finished. We both remarked about the moulding joint on the cabinet, and he asked if it would be possible to come back to replace that moulding. We agreed, and he asked if I would contact him mid-July after he completed 2 large projects. I said yes, and I did contact him in mid-July. He said that the soonest he could come was August 18, which was agreed to. Tuesday, August 18 came, and he didn’t show up or contact us at any time. We tried to reach him throughout the day with no success. He did leave a text stating that he would call the next morning, Wednesday, at 10 am. No phone call received. I tried to reach him several times throughout the day but was ignored. My last phone call, about 6 pm, asked why he was ghosting us, and if he didn’t respond, I would contact Angi’s list and leave a negative review. He texted later that night stating that he would come back whenever he felt like it and that I should show some “patience”. He was also upset that I should have asked him to set up an actual date for his return. He never said he would come on a specific day. I did not make up the August 18 booking, as we have a very busy calendar, and I post everything to make sure we keep that specific date clear."

Plaster Repair FAQs, answered by experts

Plastering and skimming are two different techniques for finishing walls. Plastering involves applying a thick layer of a plaster mixture—typically containing gypsum, lime, cement, sand, and water—to create a new surface. This process often requires multiple coats and is used for repairing significant damage or creating decorative textures. Skimming, on the other hand, is a technique that involves applying a thin layer of drywall compound or joint compound over an existing surface to smooth it out, covering minor imperfections, small cracks, or uneven textures for a polished look. Plastering is generally more costly and labor-intensive than skimming. Although some people use the terms interchangeably, they refer to different processes and materials.

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.

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.

Whether Venetian plaster increases your home's value often depends on the buyer's preference. As a purely aesthetic upgrade, it doesn't add structural value in the same way a kitchen or bathroom remodel might. However, its beautiful and attractive appearance can make a home more appealing to potential buyers, possibly leading to more interest, higher offers, and increased competition when you sell.

Yes, you can use drywall repair techniques for some types of plaster damage. Tiny holes and small cracks in plaster can be patched in similar ways to drywall. You apply the necessary compound to fill the hole, wait for it to dry, then sand it down. For larger damage, like water damage or mold, you need to use plaster-specific techniques and materials.
