"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!"

"Chain-link fence and drive-through gate were damaged by a "roll-away" car. Will repaired the fence and replaced the gate and it is now perfect. He went over-and-above chaising down a gate throughout area stores. He worked more because of this. We are very pleased with his professionalism and invaluable knowledge. His price was certainly fair. We will be calling him in the future for all our handyman needs."

"Nolan did a great job replacing drywall damaged due to a plumbing repair. He was very thorough and he took care to minimize the drywall dust and new paint smell. His pricing was good and he had a short lead time to start the job. I would hire Nolan at Finish Line Pros again."

"I hired Friedman Home Improvements to repair my 30-year-old wooden shed. They had to remove the rotting-wood doors, frame, and siding on the south side of the shed. Then, they had to build a new door frame, install new siding, build and install new doors. They built all of this on my patio. They did a beautiful job."

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.

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.

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

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).

Venetian plaster is a highly durable wall finish that becomes a rock-like substance once dried, making it last longer than most other wall finishes. Its lifespan can range from decades to centuries, potentially lasting a lifetime. Key factors influencing its longevity include the quality of the initial application, whether it's properly sealed against moisture, and how the wall is maintained and treated (e.g., how often it is touched or bumped). Due to its mineral content, it can also develop a patina over time.
