"If you get Miguel as your patch guy then youâ re in great hands. Such a kind man. He was there on time, every day. We had quite the project going on so his promptness was appreciated. If youâ re inclined, heâ s great at working and chatting or heâ s good to be left on his own. I would recommend Patch Master to anybody! I was looking for plaster workers on Angieâ s List and they were the first on the list! Within 3 min of me putting my info down Kenzie contacted me, I sent photos of what needed repairs and I got a quote later (15 min later). Couldnâ t be more pleased."

"Miguel did an outstanding job and even though there were surprises for him (it's an old house), there were none for us - he finished in the timeframe he bid. We had question on the finish of the wood - Miguel made a special trip to bring us a sample. We couldn't be more pleased with the outcome."

"We had an EXCELLENT experience with Ismerio Drywall. Humberto, in particular, was a great project manager. The office staff were very good and professional. As with most contractors there are "bumps along the way", but in the end ALL things were done to our expectations and they didn't stop until the job was done to our 100% satisfaction. I would highly recommend them. All the workers were kind and friendly and hardworking. They did: drywall, insulation and framing for us to include: mud, tape, and texture of all walls and ceilings. They helped us finish our 1800+ square foot basement and we plan to use them for any future projects."

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

While it is possible to repair minor plaster cracks or holes yourself, it is generally not recommended for larger jobs or if you want a professional result. Plaster repair can be difficult in practice; proper wall preparation and achieving a smooth, seamless finish that blends with the existing wall requires experience, especially on textured surfaces. Hiring a professional ensures the repair will be durable and last longer, potentially saving you money over time. A pro can also determine if the cracks are from normal expansion or a more serious underlying issue.

Plaster ceilings can sag for several reasons. In some cases, the plaster and other building materials shift and come apart over time, which is why you’ll commonly find drooping plaster ceilings in older homes. Improper installation, foot traffic, and water damage—often from a leaky roof or a broken pipe—can also cause plaster ceilings to sag.

This depends on how much plaster is applied and in how many layers, but a decent estimate is around 150 square feet. If you are applying only two coats on a small wall, there is a chance you may only need one or two gallons for the entire project. If you are plastering a large living room wall with high ceilings, using one of the more involved techniques–like Scagliola–that requires several coats, expect the project materials costs to add up quickly. 

Plaster is a beautiful finish but is labor-intensive to install and remove. It’s vulnerable to cracking and more sensitive to moisture variance than drywall. Installing plaster on a new wall is an expensive process that can take days to weeks, depending on the scope. Removing a plaster wall can also be quite expensive and time-consuming.

Yes, you can install drywall over plaster, but there are important factors to consider. While it can create a smooth, flat surface, it is often not the best approach. Installing drywall over plaster will increase the wall's thickness, which can cause issues with existing window and door frames that may no longer fit. You might also need to adjust power outlets to keep them accessible. A better, though more expensive, option is to remove the old plaster and lath entirely before installing new drywall. Drywalling directly over plaster seals in the old material, and if any problems arise later, you will need to remove both layers down to the structural beams for repairs. Given the potential complications, this job is best handled by professionals.
