"They did a great job! They called me back the same day and set up for the repair the very next day. They arrived on time and taped off the area so there was no mess. They fixed the crack and charged the amount that I was quoted. Great experience and will definitely use again!"

"At the beginning, there was a problem when Mason Man's estimator cancelled my appointment a few minutes before he was to arrive. Since I was in a hurry to repair the sidewalk at my lease house, I requested that another person come out the same day. Mason Man sent another representative to meet with me on the same day, and they were able to schedule the work just a few days later. The crew even stopped to purchase donuts for me when they realized they were running late to my job. The sidewalk repair & other masonry work looks great."

"I hired Alexis to do some dry wall repair. He also helped me with a couple other small problems. He is very professional, has a calm and reassuring personality, and an excellent with ethic. I was comfortable even giving him a key to my house. His work is top notch, and he cleaned up the area after he finished. I would highly recommend him for any project you’re considering!"

"Manly Maids and the owner Nathan Hale is the best keep secret in the Dallas Fort Worth Area!!!  I realized I was loosing water and called for an appointment.  He was prompt on appointment time and  very professional.  After checking my pool he  found  the source of the leak and he was able to  repaired it.  He gave me some much needed advice on my pool and also did a quick check just to see if I had any other issues.  I was so impressed that I have decided to let Manly Maids take over my pool service full time!

"Very well. Approximately four days start to finish on-site. We picked out the counter tops at the warehouse. Our selection was more than our budget but Juan was able to work it out with the vendor to get the slab without increasing the price. I threw them a couple of curves during the process but they adapted very wall and are very customer service oriented."

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

You can repair plaster ceilings yourself after the cause of the ceiling damage has been addressed. However, the repair can easily take 5 hours and can be slightly challenging for those without previous experience. If you do decide to flex your DIY muscle, have a helper to help hold the ladder and pass you the tools for safety purposes.

If your home was built before the 1940s and was not remodeled in the past 50 or so years, you probably have plaster walls. Aside from assuming, there are some practical ways to tell if you have plaster walls, including the following: If you knock on the wall and it feels solid, not hollow, if you can’t insert a thumbtack easily, if there are cracks that look like spiderwebs, or if your home has curved, arched, or swirled walls, doorways, or window openings.

If you have an unfinished basement or attic, you could examine the backs of any finished walls to check, too.

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.

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 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.
