"Alejandro completed two drywall/plaster repair projects with us. He promptly responded to my inquiries. It was very easy to schedule the appointments to get a quote and complete the work. The drywall and plaster jobs (2) were well done and the job areas were properly cleaned. Price for jobs was competitive and fair."

"We had a pretty severe crack in the plaster in our ceiling, due to a leak. Alejandro was quick to give us a call to set up a time for him to look at it, and within 3 days of calling, our ceiling is fixed. He was able to do a patch with drywall and even painted & texturized it so it matched, pretty seamlessly, with the rest of the ceiling. The process was quick, the price was great, especially for the quality of work, and Alejandro was lovely to deal with. Definitely recommend for plaster/drywall repair of any kind. We'll be calling back when it's time to paint, as they do that as well!"

"59Handyman was hired to repair water damage to the ceiling of the master bedroom in my home. This included inspection of any further damage, repair of the drywall, as well as fixing the seams and re-painting the entire ceiling. Victor was communicative and efficient, he provided a 2-year warranty on the repair, the work he did made the space look and feel as good as new. He was clean and respectful of my home. Since the experience was so good I would not hesitate to have Victor and 59Handyman repair or renovate in the future. A trustworthy professional."

"This was a very involved plaster repair and remediation job, in a very old house. Grady is the only person (or company) who was willing to take on the job and drive all the way from Pennsylvania to our home in Northern Virginia. There are very few people who do this kind of work anymore (we really searched) and he is an expert in his field. We needed to work around his schedule, because he is in demand in the tri-state area, so it took awhile to schedule the work to begin... but it was worth it."

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

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.

Yes, you can apply new plaster over an existing plaster surface, such as a wall or ceiling, provided the old plaster is in good condition. Before you begin, check the stability of the existing plaster. The surface must be clean, free of loose material, and have no peeling paint. It is also recommended to roughen the surface slightly to promote adhesion. For older plaster, applying a base coat like a PVA emulsion or a specific bonding agent or primer is crucial. This step makes the existing plaster less porous and ensures the new and old layers adhere properly for a smooth, long-lasting finish.

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.

Smaller is better when patching holes with spackle. Any holes wider than four to six inches in diameter tend to be too wide to repair with spackle alone. You'll likely want to patch bigger holes with a drywall panel. 

Even holes measuring up to 6 inches may be challenging to fill with spackle alone. For best results, purchase a wall repair patch made from wire mesh. Cut the patch to fit over the hole, then use the spackle to hold it in place. Apply the spackle over the patch as you would for a smaller hole.

There are several warning signs that a ceiling crack is connected to a larger issue. For starters, if the crack is wider than 1/8 inch or longer than 12 inches, you might have a more serious problem. The same applies if you have multiple smaller cracks or cracks going across the ceiling and down the wall. In any of these situations, you should ask a professional to assess the damage.
