Customers say: Quality work

"Super Nice Guys! Not the cheapest quote we got by any means, but you get what you pay for! Well worth it, they not only repaired multiple holes from electrical work we had done. They also fixed shotty drywall work from previous people. I did a lot of research before hand, these guys had a good Youtube video which was nice (https://youtu.be/Qmwp-ga-IbI) because it allowed me to get an idea of who they were and the type of work they did before hand. I hope not to need dry wall repair in the future, but if we do for sure it will be Speedy Patch Drywall Repair. Excellen Quality, worth every penny."

"I had multiple bids and I went with the most economical for my budget. The owner offered to match the lower bid but I had already committed to the other company. The owner & staff were quite professional and courteous. I would feel comfortable hiring them and or recommending them to others"

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can apply new plaster over an existing plaster surface, such as a wall or ceiling, provided the old plaster is in good condition. Before you begin, check the stability of the existing plaster. The surface must be clean, free of loose material, and have no peeling paint. It is also recommended to roughen the surface slightly to promote adhesion. For older plaster, applying a base coat like a PVA emulsion or a specific bonding agent or primer is crucial. This step makes the existing plaster less porous and ensures the new and old layers adhere properly for a smooth, long-lasting finish.

Regular inspections and cleaning to prevent moisture or pest issues.

Although they are used for similar tasks, spackle and joint compound are not the same. Joint compound, also known as drywall mud, consists of limestone and gypsum and is primarily used for large-scale projects like taping and finishing seams on new drywall. Spackle is composed of gypsum and binding agents, making it a thicker compound best suited for small wall repairs like filling nail holes or cracks, as it dries quickly and is easy to sand. For small repairs, either product can be suitable. However, you can use joint compound for small jobs in place of spackle, but you cannot use spackle for large-scale taping and mudding projects.

How long it takes to repair a ceiling depends on the extent of the damage. Patching a small hole might only take a few minutes, while repairing a water-damaged section of the ceiling could take hours. If there are structural issues, expect your ceiling repair to take several days or longer.

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.
