"I can t say enough good things about this company! Moises was prompt in responding to my Home Advisor request, providing a bid, and doing the project. He was always here exactly on time and was careful about screening off the work area to contain construction debris. He cleaned up after each work day which helped us be able to use our kitchen area in the evening. His drywall and wood floor repair work is impressive. You cannot even tell where we took out the wall in the kitchen and swamp cooler grate in our ceiling. I would highly recommend Moises and plan to use him again for future projects."

"He was Great. He replied instantly as soon as I put in the request on HomeAdvisor he was willing to do it the same day or the next day where the other people who I requested a quote for took all day and wouldn't be able to do the job till a month later. He was also very fair priced and polite and I would recommend him to everyone who needs to have wall repair done."

"This was one big room with funny angles that I needed sheet rock done. Although I got some bids from other contractors, I could get other contractors to schedule time because it was not a big job. Eduardo came and did it, He was prompt and finished on schedule."

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

Although they have similar applications, spackle and joint compound are not the same. Their primary differences lie in their composition, consistency, and ideal use cases.

Spackle is composed of gypsum and binding agents, making it thicker than joint compound. It dries quickly and is easy to sand, which makes it ideal for small wall repair projects like filling nail holes or patching minor damage.

Joint compound, also known as drywall mud, consists of limestone and gypsum. It is primarily used for large-scale projects, such as taping and finishing the seams on newly installed drywall. It tends to shrink more than spackle and can be more difficult to spread.

While both products can be used to fill small depressions and cracks, spackle cannot replace joint compound for taping and mudding new drywall. Conversely, you can often use joint compound for small patching jobs typically done with spackle.

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.

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.

To maintain plaster walls, inspect them regularly for cracks and seal them early. Clean the walls by dusting regularly or using a gentle, damp cloth. It's also important to avoid moisture exposure. Repainting as needed will help maintain the wall's appearance and longevity.

Venetian plaster is a highly durable wall finish that becomes a rock-like substance once dried, making it last longer than most other wall finishes. Its lifespan can range from decades to centuries, potentially lasting a lifetime. Key factors influencing its longevity include the quality of the initial application, whether it's properly sealed against moisture, and how the wall is maintained and treated (e.g., how often it is touched or bumped). Due to its mineral content, it can also develop a patina over time.
