"I had several different areas of home repairs that needed immediate attention. I reached out to Otero Remodeling. Hosea came to my home the very next day to assess the areas that needed repairing. Otero Remodeling gave me a very affordable quote and the work was outstanding. I have had Otero Remodeling out to my home several times and each time the work was done professionally. Hosea was always kind, patient, and honest. Otero Remodeling Services will always be my only choice for home repairs!!!"

"This was the second time we've had SurfacePro in for work in our 1860s rowhouse, and another stellar experience. They did plaster repair and painting in our living room, a bedroom, a bathroom, and a hall ceiling. They had to contend with water damage areas, cracks in the plaster, and areas where the finish plaster was delaminating from the original horsehair base plaster. We hired them for the quality of their plaster repair work, but we were equally impressed this time with their painting. All aspects of the job, from prep to cleanup, were done with care and amazing efficiency. Also must commend their reliability - did what they said when they said and always were timely in getting back to us when we contacted them. We will definitely use them in the future."

"We had a very large hole in our bedroom wall where a large flatscreen tv had pulled away from the wall. The wall was plaster and other contractors wanted to rip the entire wall out and put drywall up. I finally found Steve and he was professional reasonably priced and his work was perfect. I would recommend him to anyone looking for plaster repair."

So talented and the nicest people I've ever done business with. They worked almost 10 hour days for two months and went above and beyond for me. Highly recommend them."

"This was a very involved plaster repair and remediation job, in a very old house. Grady is the only person (or company) who was willing to take on the job and drive all the way from Pennsylvania to our home in Northern Virginia. There are very few people who do this kind of work anymore (we really searched) and he is an expert in his field. We needed to work around his schedule, because he is in demand in the tri-state area, so it took awhile to schedule the work to begin... but it was worth it."

"Carlos and his team are committed to doing an excellent job for you. They take extra care in the prep work which is so important for a good and lasting paint job and is so often ignored or skipped by many painters. I have a 100+ year old home which is even more challenging. I can always count on being happy when they are finished, and Carlos takes special care to ensure that happiness. He has painted both interior and exterior for me for many years, first through another company and now on his own."

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

You can technically just paint over hairline cracks in plaster since these cracks are often harmless, but this will mostly be a waste of paint. Paint will only hide the hairline crack for a few months before it shows up again. The best solution is to repair the crack with flexible filler or joint compound before repainting.

Whether you can install or repair plaster yourself depends on the project's size and your comfort level with DIY projects. It's possible to handle small repairs on your own, but for larger projects like a room restoration or a full installation, it's often best to hire a local plaster professional. The final appearance, even coverage, and durability of the plaster depend heavily on proper wall preparation and application. If you are not 100% confident in your ability to achieve a professional result, letting an expert handle the job is a worthwhile investment.

Plastering and skimming are two different techniques for finishing walls. Plastering involves applying a thick layer of a plaster mixture—typically containing gypsum, lime, cement, sand, and water—to create a new surface. This process often requires multiple coats and is used for repairing significant damage or creating decorative textures. Skimming, on the other hand, is a technique that involves applying a thin layer of drywall compound or joint compound over an existing surface to smooth it out, covering minor imperfections, small cracks, or uneven textures for a polished look. Plastering is generally more costly and labor-intensive than skimming. Although some people use the terms interchangeably, they refer to different processes and materials.

If your premixed drywall mud is dried out or has begun to set in the bucket, you may be able to revive it by adding warm water and stirring. However, the first and most important step is to scrape off any hard, dried bits of drywall that may have accumulated toward the top of the container and throw them away because they will not easily reconstitute back into the drywall mud mix.

If you’re looking for a reliable plaster repair company, you should start by researching local companies in your area and reviewing their status with the Better Business Bureau. Next, you can contact the potential companies to ask about experience levels, get a list of references, and ask for examples of past work. If you have a textured wall, consider asking if they have examples or references for that particular texture. This method should help you narrow your search even further. You may also want to ask each company if they provide a warranty for their work.
