I bought a coupon for wallpaper removal in my kitchen.  The actual cost was more than the coupon (which I expected) and the additional cost to get the walls into condition for paint was more than I expected.

I preface this whole review with the fact that they had to work around a weird schedule as I travel for work and was only home on Fridays.  They said they could accommodate that.  While the work they did was

of good quality I was frustrated with the lack of communication around the schedule.  Often I was told a worker would come and they didn't.  Ocassionally they didn't call to say so.  I would often have to call them, got voice mail and dint know if I needed to stay home or not.

I had a couple issues with the quality.  The walls looked great but they missed a section and had to come back. They also were kind of sloppy with the mudding and left globs of hardened plaster on my outlets and light switches. In addition, after the snow melted in my yard I found a big glob of plaster on the grass where they had scraped out their tray into the snow bank next to my driveway.  I was also disappointed they didn't wipe down the walls after sanding.

So if you're a stickler for scheduling they might not be the best fit for you. Otherwise the work was good.

"The service was great. They were no problems whatsoever. They were a good company to work with. They were timely. I have no complaints. There were additional charges to the $445 Big Deal cost. I essentially paid twice that because I had them do the entire attic versus the Big Deal was just for a certain amount. I needed double the amount. They credited me that amount that it needed and then, I paid retail price for the remainder. The guy that gave the estimate was very nice and timely with the appointment. The crew that came out to do the work was very nice, cleaned up after themselves, and did a great job. I had no complaints. As far as the company itself, the product, what they are selling, what they are doing, and the installation, it was fine. I would recommend them. They came out probably within a week or two after I purchased the Big Deal. It was fairly quick."

"It has been a long process that is comming to a conclusion. We had many suprises once we got into the job but Sean Reilly was great about giving us options and how much it would cost if he did the overage and allowed us to find other sources to complete the work. All told he has stuck close to the budget as promised and has justified the 10% over the estimate. I would recommend Reilly Renovations for any finsh work."

Plaster Repair FAQs, answered by experts

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.

Professionals diagnose underlying causes, such as structural shifts or moisture problems, and apply appropriate solutions like reinforcement, patching, or sealing. These measures restore wall integrity and prevent recurrence, ensuring long-term stability.

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 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.

The tool you use to sand plaster will depend on the size of the project. If you’re just working on a small section of your wall to get rid of an uneven spot on the surface, hand-sanding might work. However, for larger projects, a drywall sander can make a huge difference when it comes to both time and elbow grease—and an orbital sander can help for detailed areas such as around ceiling fans.
