"Highly recommended! Albert drywalled the upstairs (3 rooms and hall), repairs ceiling holes, repaired and floated a plaster wall, drywalled a ceiling (over plaster) and skim coated 3 walls. He was professional, communicated well and the work was excellent. There were several challenges to our job (old house, etc.) so it wasnâ t typical. We highly recommend and will be using Albert again for our next project!"

"Very happy finding Dustin, took awesome care of us. We had him repair our water damaged bathroom ceiling and it turn out great! Very prompt and made sure we were happy with the final product. He provided recommendations for options to make the repairs, provided an estimate that was spot on, and even started the job the same day. And if that is not enough, he did so on New Years day. I really appreciate his confidence and expertise, made me know he was going to do a good job and I was not disappointed. Fantastic communication and very responsive. I will be recommending his services to others and using again. Thanks Dustin and Happy New Year! Truly appreciate the hard work."

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

With its breathability and flexibility, lime plaster is among the most durable of all plaster types. It's also fire-resistant and has a proven track record, as people have been using it for thousands of years.

However, all plaster types will last for many years with the right care and treatment. Proper preparation and installation will also help ensure your plaster walls look great for as long as possible.

You’ll want to inspect your plaster walls for signs of damage before painting. If you notice soft spots, deep cracks, bubbling, or areas where the plaster is crumbling or pulling away from the wall, it likely needs repair. While small hairline cracks are common and likely cosmetic, you should address larger issues before painting to ensure a quality, smooth finish.

Technically speaking, you can use drywall primer over plasters. However, oil-based primers work the most effectively on wall plasters. Meanwhile, water-based primers work just as well with drywalls. Nowadays, there are also universal primers suitable for drywall and plaster. Overall, you will be fine as long as you are using a trustworthy brand.

There are several warning signs that a ceiling crack is connected to a larger issue. For starters, if the crack is wider than 1/8 inch or longer than 12 inches, you might have a more serious problem. The same applies if you have multiple smaller cracks or cracks going across the ceiling and down the wall. In any of these situations, you should ask a professional to assess the damage.

The cost to repair a ceiling after a water leak can vary, with averages ranging from $419 to $1,359, or $45 to $55 per square foot. Smaller patches may cost around $150. The final price depends on the size of the affected area and the extent of the damage. Remember that you will also need to repair the source of the leak, such as roof damage or a plumbing issue, which can cost an additional $200 to $1,550. Depending on the situation, you might also face costs for repainting or repairing floors. For an accurate estimate, it is best to get a quote from a professional.
