"I know the name is Plaster Surgeon, but Plaster Miracle Worker may be more appropriate. They were responsive, flexible with their schedule to accommodate other home improvement work I had going on, and did an absolutely amazing job. We had some of the drywall issues for years thinking they could not be repaired...but the the Plaster Surgeon made everything look better than new. See the before and after (still drying). Amazing."

"Pete Grady did tuckpointing work on our brick home recently, as the mortar is breaking down in some spots on our brick exterior (older home, built 1929). Unfortunately, this caused us to have some bubbling up, cracking on our interior plaster walls. Once again, Pete came to the rescue, doing tuckpointing work on the outside and then his wonderful plaster work on our interior walls. Pete has done various work for us for numerous years – painting, plaster wall repair, tuckpointing work, and more. Nobody compares to the great plaster work Pete does. Thanks Pete!"

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

Plaster provides a durable, soundproof, and moisture-resistant finish compared to drywall.

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.

Drying alone can take 1 to 4 hours to dry to the touch per plaster layer, but some types of plaster take several hours longer to dry. However, this doesn’t mean the job is done because plaster doesn’t fully harden until it cures, which can take a few days to a couple of weeks. It may take even longer if you’re building a new, pretty thick plaster wall. Allow the plaster to cure before painting it.

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).

Repairing plaster walls or ceilings is almost always worthwhile. It restores the appearance of your home, and if it's an exterior wall, the repair can improve curb appeal and provide a great return on investment when selling. Plaster repairs can also reinforce the wall, preventing minor cracks from spreading, and improve your home’s energy efficiency by fixing gaps in the insulative material, potentially lowering your heating and cooling bills. Additionally, hiring a professional allows them to check if the damage is from a serious underlying issue, such as foundation instability. Catching a problem like this early could save you thousands.
