"I placed my request and within a few hours the guys at AM Services responded and they set up an appointment the next day. They were honest up front with the pricing and they could perform the work immediately. They removed the old toilet and installed a new one and removed the old bathroom faucet and installed a new one. I had already purchased the parts. And of course, with plumbing there is usually a hiccup. Lots of corrosion. But Ken and Anthony got it all corrected and did a beautiful job. They even cleaned up so that I could not tell anything was ever messy! They are a great team, do excellent work, and are fair. Even though my project was not large, they were respectful, truthful, kind, and treated me like a very important client. Highly recommend."

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

It’s not a good idea to plaster over broken plaster (unless by broken you’re referring to cracked, in which case that’s perfectly fine). However, broken plaster can be a sign of a larger underlying issue like foundation damage or severe damage to the lath holding up the plaster, so it’s worth investigating before you simply plaster on top of the damage.

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.

Many services include repainting to match the existing surface. Confirm with your provider.

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.

Look for flaking paint or air bubbles that burst and then flake away. Paint will begin to flake after being exposed to minimal moisture or water, so it’s a good indicator of any water damage. If you notice your paint starting to flake, feel the plaster underneath to see if it is soft or damp.
