"Albert did an excellent job repairing our ceiling which had water damage from leak in our air conditioning. He arrived 2 days to complete the plaster job . We are pleased with ceiling which had a pattern. Can't tell any difference in the pattern that he repaired. Would recommend Albert for any plastering or drywall job."

"Codee and his team moved me from Marion to Carey, OH on June 18, 2022. They were a little bit late getting there, but that was better for me because it gave me more time to get ready for them before they got there because I was also running behind. Anyway, Codee and his team really did a great job, and they joked around and made it kind of fun, and I HATE MOVING!! We had to make 2 trips, but they were done in a timely manner. They handled my things with care, took down my curtains, took my bed and dresser apart and put them back together, and unhooked my washer and dryer and then hooked my washer back up in the new house (but I had do purchase a new plug receptacle because it was different than the plug that was on my dryer). There was a washer/dryer in the new house that I didn't need, and they even took that back to Marion for me and delivered it to the neighbor that I gave it to, WOW, how about that for service!! I was very pleased with the team, and the service was exceptional, and we had a great time. I would recommend this team/business to anyone! Bonnie B."

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

You can technically just paint over hairline cracks in plaster since these cracks are often harmless, but this will mostly be a waste of paint. Paint will only hide the hairline crack for a few months before it shows up again. The best solution is to repair the crack with flexible filler or joint compound before repainting.

Depending on how much adhesive was used as well as the strength of the adhesive, you may have some drywall damage when removing a mirror. You can typically repair most drywall damage if it’s small by sanding the damaged area, applying spackle to smooth the damaged section so it’s flush with the rest of the wall, and repainting the area.

There are several warning signs that a ceiling crack is connected to a larger issue. For starters, if the crack is wider than 1/8 inch or longer than 12 inches, you might have a more serious problem. The same applies if you have multiple smaller cracks or cracks going across the ceiling and down the wall. In any of these situations, you should ask a professional to assess the damage.

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.

You’ll want to inspect your plaster walls for signs of damage before painting. If you notice soft spots, deep cracks, bubbling, or areas where the plaster is crumbling or pulling away from the wall, it likely needs repair. While small hairline cracks are common and likely cosmetic, you should address larger issues before painting to ensure a quality, smooth finish.
