"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

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 install drywall over plaster, but there are important factors to consider. While it can create a smooth, flat surface, it is often not the best approach. Installing drywall over plaster will increase the wall's thickness, which can cause issues with existing window and door frames that may no longer fit. You might also need to adjust power outlets to keep them accessible. A better, though more expensive, option is to remove the old plaster and lath entirely before installing new drywall. Drywalling directly over plaster seals in the old material, and if any problems arise later, you will need to remove both layers down to the structural beams for repairs. Given the potential complications, this job is best handled by professionals.

You can repair plaster ceilings yourself after the cause of the ceiling damage has been addressed. However, the repair can easily take 5 hours and can be slightly challenging for those without previous experience. If you do decide to flex your DIY muscle, have a helper to help hold the ladder and pass you the tools for safety purposes.

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.

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.
