"Victor was the first to respond to my request ... within a couple minutes. We met for a free estimate: We discussed the project, which was to repair the ceiling from a 2nd story water leak. He was familar with the problem and we discussed the best and worse cases for repair. Victor showed up on time with his son, Victor Jr, and repaired the damage ceilling within a couple hours. His price was very reasonable, his work ethic and attention to detail were beyond reproach. I would not hesitate to work with him again. He has my highest, unqualified recommendation for any drywall or painting work. Top Grade A+++!!!!"

"I needed a garage ceiling repair. They were quick to contact me after I initially requested their service. The owner ( Ricky) was professional over the phone and was able to quote a price after I sent a picture of the damage. I agreed to hire them. They arrived on time and completed the work in a timely manner. Their work was good. Ricky is a professional and polite young man. I recommend his company and would use them again."

"Fernando was on time for our scheduled repair. He was professional and did a great job blending in the drywall repair with the original walls. The rooms were neat and clean and ready to be painted the next day. Mr. Taggart our salesman was also professional and let us know what to expect from their service. Because they did such a great job, I am going to hire them for other repairs we need done to our home."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Most handy homeowners can tackle removing texture from unpainted walls. Removing texture from painted walls is a bit trickier. Paint acts as a sealant, so you can’t soften the texture with water. Instead, you’ll have to add a layer of drywall compound known as a skim coat. This process is messy and takes some practice.

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.

New plaster must be fully dry and cured before painting. The drying time for plaster ranges from 1 to 4 hours, but the curing process can take more than five days, depending on various factors, including humidity levels, temperature, the amount of plaster used, and airflow in the area. You should always apply primer before painting plaster.

You can put drywall mud over paint to even out the surface or entirely resurface it. Sand the surface with 280-grit sandpaper, vacuum the debris and dust with a shop vac, and clean it with a slightly damp cloth. Allow the surface to dry. Apply drywall primer, especially if you’re skim-coating an entire wall. Apply the right type of drywall mud over the surface and smooth it with a trowel. Allow the layer to cure fully, then sand it before applying another layer or painting it.

All plaster walls will crack over time due to normal house settling and expansion and contraction from temperature and moisture changes. Small, thin hairline cracks are generally not serious and are mostly a cosmetic issue. However, larger or more significant cracks can indicate structural problems.

Here's how to tell the difference:

  • Cosmetic Cracks: Cracks that are 0.5 cm (0.2 inches) or thinner are typically cosmetic.

  • Structural Cracks: Cracks wider than 0.5 cm, excessive or deep cracks, multiple cracks in the same area, or cracks that span around corners can signify a structural or foundation issue. Cracks along the joints where walls meet the ceiling also warrant attention.

For cracks wider than 0.5 cm, structural repair is needed. If a crack is 2.5 cm (1 inch) or wider, or if you notice any signs of a structural problem, it is best to contact a plaster repair professional to assess the damage.
