"After plumbing repairs were finished, I dreaded the next step... plastering. Choosing Speedy Patch is the only way to go, folks. Shane and Andy arrived for an estimate, explained the products they use that controll dust, and I was sold. On the scheduled morning, Andy began prepping, Chad and Christian arrived, and by 4pm, they were done. Their workmanship and "speed" is amazing. Beautiful plastering without the dust. So definitely money well spent. Thank you Chad, Andy, and Christian. You're the best!"

"Requested Help on Saturday 9:15Am, received a phone call at 10:am. He said that he would come by this Saturday (today) at 10:30am. Mr. Johnson arrived on time. We showed him two bathrooms needed to be done asap. He started that right away. After he finished that job. Then, we added several more projects with the same stipulation that they had to be done right away. He completed all of our jobs in quick order. All plastering, painting 3 bathrooms, repairing porch railing & installation of 5 posts as well as painting the porch rails & floor. He & his team completed the jobs in three days. He went over and above on meeting our expectations and our deadline. He has a very positive attitude and is very timely. We strongly recommend. We will use him in the future when we have a need. Well pleased - Mr. & Mrs Johnny R"

"Robert came out to review the damage. He was very professional and explained what they would do. The family room ceiling was about 3 feet by one foot area. The work was impressive. When they finished and it dried, you really need to know where to look to see the repair."

"Mr. Moyer is truly a professional and did such a great job repairing the damage.    During the process, I had one area that required drywall over an area that was to cover the pipes coming from the upstairs sink.    He noticed a drop of water on the drywall and I had to have plumber come out to repair the water leak under the sink.    It was such a subtle leak, but definitely needed repair prior to completing the job which could have caused more damage down the road if not detected.    He did an excellent clean up job as well once he completed the work."

"We couldn't be happier with our experience with Rene. We hired him to do our kitchen tile floor and he did such a great job, we didn't hesitate to work with him again to install the wood flooring throughout the rest of our main floor. He works quickly and also pays a lot of attention to detail. He noticed a few things that weren't quite right without us pointing them out or even noticing. And he would have the fixed the next day. We would definitely consider him again if we have any projects in the future."

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

Only use spackle on plaster walls when the imperfection is small. It’s best used for nail holes or small dings in the plaster. Spackle dries quickly, allowing you to continue the repair process shortly after using it. Plaster can be tricky to repair, though, so if you run into issues, call a pro so that you don’t risk further damage.

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.

While it’s most common to sand plaster dry, it is possible to wet-sand plaster, too. Doing so can reduce the amount of plaster dust released into the air and make it easier to work in smaller, more delicate areas (such as around wall trim). However, some people find that wet sanding leads to more imperfections, which is why larger walls are more often dry sanded to ensure an even finish.

Yes, you can apply new plaster over an existing plaster surface, such as a wall or ceiling, provided the old plaster is in good condition. Before you begin, check the stability of the existing plaster. The surface must be clean, free of loose material, and have no peeling paint. It is also recommended to roughen the surface slightly to promote adhesion. For older plaster, applying a base coat like a PVA emulsion or a specific bonding agent or primer is crucial. This step makes the existing plaster less porous and ensures the new and old layers adhere properly for a smooth, long-lasting finish.

Plaster is a pretty tough surface, but it can still sustain damage from things like bumping against it, water issues, dampness, extreme humidity changes, and plain old age. Most plaster walls last hundreds of years and will only be taken down to the base layer when major repairs are required. Being cautious around the wall, not placing furniture against it, and ensuring stable humidity are all great ways to reduce possible damage.
