"Unlike the rest of the people in Colorado Springs involved in home repair business, theyre priced appropriately. My only complaint was how long they took to come to the house HOWEVER they more than made up for that in professionalism and a healthy price adjustment that was offered in apology for their lateness which was of little inconvenience. Would recommend every time over the price gouging competition in this business."

"Cassie and JD run a great operation at All Things Walls. They were quick to come in and provide a fair estimate for drywalling and painting multiple areas in my home. They did a great job in a timely manner and exceeded my expectations. I will continue to use All Things Walls for all my wall project needs and to get my current remodel done. Highly recommend this company! Great friendly people."

"I could not be more satisfied w The Patch Boys of Clarksville and Bowling Green. Im pretty particular w contractors especially when it comes to working inside my home. Working w Ireland and her team to remove the popcorn ceiling throughout my home took the stress out of the project. Now I look at my newly remodeled ceilings and just smile. When I need drywall work completed again, I wont hesitate to call Ireland Lutz and her Patch Boys team!"

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

You can plaster over regular drywall, but it's essential to prepare the surface properly. Before plastering, the drywall should be clean, free of dust, and any loose or peeling paint should be removed. Applying a primer specifically designed for plastering can improve adhesion. Some professionals recommend applying a base coat of plaster or joint compound to create a better surface for the plaster to adhere to. Proper preparation ensures a smooth and durable plaster finish over regular drywall.

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.

You can skim coat plaster, but it’s better to repair the plaster itself. A skim coat is a thin coat of drywall joint compound spread over the surface of a wall. The result is a flat finish that looks pleasing, but part of the appeal of plaster is its imperfections and aesthetic. Skim coating is best when limited to drywall applications.

Plastering lasts for around 15 to 20 years without needing repairs or maintenance in most cases, and with proper upkeep, plastering can last a lifetime—sometimes more than 100 years. Plaster repair costs between $1 and $3 per square foot, and you may need these services once every 15 to 20 years or so unless you have a harsh climate where humidity changes are a constant issue. You can also opt to skim-coat plaster for between $0.90 and $1.30 per square foot, which may serve you better in the long run.

Look for flaking paint or air bubbles that burst and then flake away. Paint will begin to flake after being exposed to minimal moisture or water, so it’s a good indicator of any water damage. If you notice your paint starting to flake, feel the plaster underneath to see if it is soft or damp.
