"I needed kitchen ceiling and bathroom ceiling repairs done on an older home with plaster walls and ceilings. The job was done well, and it was finished ahead of schedule. It was estimated to take 3 days and was done in just 2. They isolated the kitchen and the bathroom from the rest of the house to keep the dust and debris contained. At the end, they thoroughly cleaned up. I appreciated that. I would hire them again to do more work on the house."

"PatchMaster Northern Virginia was amazing! I had drywall damage from a plumbing repair, and they scheduled me quickly. The technician was on time, professional, and left the wall looking like it had never been touched. I couldn’t believe how smooth the finish was—highly recommend!"

"The work was excellent, and Alex was very personable. He explained everything he planned to do. He showed up when scheduled, and communicated everything. He also took the time to research what paint/stain would be best, and waited for the best time to apply it. He was quick and efficient, and the job came out perfectly, and exceeded our original expectations. We plan to have him back in the spring to do some house trim repair. If you need a handyman, hire Alex. You won't be disappointed."

"I hired CCR LLC for electrical work as part of a kitchen cabinet and countertop renovation, and the experience exceeded expectations from start to finish. From day one, the CCR team was professional and thorough — preparing and submitting all required architectural documents to the HOA Covenant Committee, securing electrical permits, and seeing everything through final inspection. When severe water damage was unexpectedly discovered mid-project and the cabinet work had to stop, CCR immediately stepped in to help. They quickly handled demolition, repairs, mold mitigation, and kept the electrical work on track — truly saving the day. In a short time, they had the kitchen fully prepped and ready for installation again, allowing us to get our kitchen back despite a stressful situation. I’m extremely grateful for their responsiveness, quality work, and commitment to their clients. CCR LLC is a reliable, professional, five-star company I highly recommend."

"Robert was terrific! Repaired the nail pops I knew about and pointed out more I hadn’t seen and repaired them, too. Repaired an area of water damage in a bump out. Everything looks like new. I’ve already asked him to do more for me."

Plaster Repair FAQs, answered by experts

The short answer is yes, a sagging plaster ceiling is dangerous. Sagging plaster on a wall is something you should fix immediately, but it isn’t a major concern. If the same type of sagging occurs on a ceiling, however, you could be in danger of your ceiling falling in large chunks. When plaster sags, it loses its strength and ability to hold itself up. The bonds that hold it together are strong, though, so if a sagging area falls, it will take large pieces down with it.

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.

It may take a bit of patience and trial and error to match your particular drywall texture type when making repairs. For orange peel or knockdown finishes, use a spray texture product or a thinned joint compound applied with a roller or sponge. Practice on scrap drywall or cardboard first. Once dry, lightly sand and prime before painting.

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.

Technically speaking, you can use drywall primer over plasters. However, oil-based primers work the most effectively on wall plasters. Meanwhile, water-based primers work just as well with drywalls. Nowadays, there are also universal primers suitable for drywall and plaster. Overall, you will be fine as long as you are using a trustworthy brand.
