"We hired Pete to help us with a monster of a job. We bought a 1901 built house that had plaster textured walls and ceilings. We had a budget we wanted to stay under and Pete was so open to options to help us cut back on costs (allowing us to help with the work and clean up each night). He was able to tackle every issue that came up and even helped us paint at the end of the job when we were running out of time before we had to move in. I cannot say enough great things about him and his crew. They were friendly, polite, and courteous while working. We hired him back to help us with a chimney repair and some finishing work. He has even helped me with suggestions and tips for my DIY work that I screwed up. I am so happy we hired Pete and will recommend him to anyone who needs plaster work, painting, or anything he specializes in. 5 STARS!"

"I was very pleased with they gave me a precise description of the project. I spoke with him, asked that he'd be on time that he called me and let me know when he was coming and when he wouldn't be there and did excellent job. He came on time and within budget. I would rehire him for other projects."

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

Repairs typically take 2-4 hours for small areas. Larger or more complex repairs may require additional 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.

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.

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.

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.
