"I am totally disappointed with this Company. They were like a different company, from our first encounter with them, making false promises to show up at certain times and then not showing up. Only doing a fair job on the stain where I had to go around and touch up in numerous areas even after they came back to do touch ups and don?t get me started on their lack of prompt communication. Communication back from the owner only happened when I got frustrated enough to get real with my emails and say how I was feeling. It was like pulling teeth to get this project done but it would have gone more smoothly had they started when they initially said they would until they got a bigger job that was more important. We are hiring a new company to re stain our deck. "

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

It is possible to repair plaster yourself, but we don’t recommend it. Plaster repair is easy in theory but difficult in practice. Applying repair plaster is straightforward, but ensuring the area is prepped properly to receive the new plaster and ensuring that the finished product looks smooth and professional both demand experience. Plus, repairs are especially difficult if you have a textured ceiling or walls. Paying for professional plaster repair is worth the investment if you want your wall to look good as new.

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.

Installing or repairing plaster on ceilings differs slightly from performing the same motions on a wall. You’ll apply slightly less plaster to lower the overall weight of the ceiling. Wall texturing is common, whereas most ceilings are smooth plaster. Tough coat plaster is strong, meaning you can use less while retaining a solid surface.

Inspect regularly for cracks, clean gently with a damp cloth, and repaint as needed to maintain appearance.

Once you’ve contained the leak, the average cost to repair a ceiling ranges from $419 to $1,359. But small ceiling patches can cost around $150. The cost to fix a leak in the ceiling will depend on the size of the affected area and the extent of the damage. As always, a pro is the best person to give you a quote on your specific situation.
