"I know the name is Plaster Surgeon, but Plaster Miracle Worker may be more appropriate. They were responsive, flexible with their schedule to accommodate other home improvement work I had going on, and did an absolutely amazing job. We had some of the drywall issues for years thinking they could not be repaired...but the the Plaster Surgeon made everything look better than new. See the before and after (still drying). Amazing."

"We hired Pete to help us with a monster of a job. We bought a 1901 built house that had plaster textured walls and ceilings. We had a budget we wanted to stay under and Pete was so open to options to help us cut back on costs (allowing us to help with the work and clean up each night). He was able to tackle every issue that came up and even helped us paint at the end of the job when we were running out of time before we had to move in. I cannot say enough great things about him and his crew. They were friendly, polite, and courteous while working. We hired him back to help us with a chimney repair and some finishing work. He has even helped me with suggestions and tips for my DIY work that I screwed up. I am so happy we hired Pete and will recommend him to anyone who needs plaster work, painting, or anything he specializes in. 5 STARS!"

"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!"

Plaster Repair FAQs, answered by experts

Ensures structural integrity and aesthetic consistency with proper materials and techniques.

Technically speaking, you can use drywall primer over plasters. However, oil-based primers work the most effectively on wall plasters. Meanwhile, water-based primers work just as well with drywalls. Nowadays, there are also universal primers suitable for drywall and plaster. Overall, you will be fine as long as you are using a trustworthy brand.

Although they have similar applications, spackle and joint compound are not the same. Their primary differences lie in their composition, consistency, and ideal use cases.

Spackle is composed of gypsum and binding agents, making it thicker than joint compound. It dries quickly and is easy to sand, which makes it ideal for small wall repair projects like filling nail holes or patching minor damage.

Joint compound, also known as drywall mud, consists of limestone and gypsum. It is primarily used for large-scale projects, such as taping and finishing the seams on newly installed drywall. It tends to shrink more than spackle and can be more difficult to spread.

While both products can be used to fill small depressions and cracks, spackle cannot replace joint compound for taping and mudding new drywall. Conversely, you can often use joint compound for small patching jobs typically done with spackle.

Plaster walls typically last between 30 and 70 years, but depending on the quality of the materials and the moisture levels in the building, they can last for over 100 years. With expert application and consistent maintenance, plaster can even last for centuries. To extend its lifespan, it is important to have the plaster professionally installed, address any water damage promptly, and repair small cracks as they appear. Regular inspections by a professional can help identify and address concerning cracks before they become significant issues.

You can skim coat plaster, but it’s better to repair the plaster itself. A skim coat is a thin coat of drywall joint compound spread over the surface of a wall. The result is a flat finish that looks pleasing, but part of the appeal of plaster is its imperfections and aesthetic. Skim coating is best when limited to drywall applications.
