Customers say: Quality work

"Honestly, The work was magnificient. We had a little miscommunication between me, my wife and the company on the entire completion of the work, which required two separate visits and two separate bills, but overall I was happy with Creative Plasters flexibility with us as a customer between the miscommunication on what I expected. I would recommend this company again and would use them again. Professionalism by Rocco was top notched!"

"Yes, see before and after photos of one of the problem areas. Excellent work done expeditiously, and Moyses Amador and his helper were on time, worked hard, were careful of the environment around them, and they cleaned up after themselves when the project was over. I had them paint a bathroom with ceiling repairs, the kitchen which also had cracks and repairs as well as two skylights, and a hallway that had some plaster repairs."

"Franz came in and did a fabulous job on my long list of repairs. I had another contractor come by and provide an estimate and I would've had to buy a new door, give up on another one, etc. With Franz, none of this was a challenge. He repaired the door and fixed the other and did an amazing job with everything else without leaving a mess. I would rehire in the future and would highly recommend to anyone needing a handyman."

"Angi have the best contractor. I really appreciate the above and beyond service. I had dry wall and plaster done and they did a great job, the ceiling and wall is even with the rest of dry wall and cannot tell there was a hole in the ceiling also made sure to cover up to prevent debris or the smell of the plaster to move through out the house."

"Very happy with the results from Wilbur Gonzalez and his crew. His estimate was spot on, he worked with my schedule and did a great job. He plastered, painted and restored a room that had been severely neglected for many years. I would highly recommend him and his team."

"The work started on the date agreed with power washing of the entire house and continued with two coats of paint on most surfaces. A series of repair needs in wooden structures were identified during that work, and we added those items to the project. The team, lead by the able and cheerful Mr. Dimas, worked efficiently and professionally for several days, only interrupted by inclement weather. We did a final walk-around to ensure that everything had been taken care of. There were minor issues in the communication with the office, but they were matters easily resolved. On the whole, a very positive experience, and I have already decided to go ahead with another project using the same firm."

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

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.

You can put certain types of plaster over other types, but doing so isn't always the best idea. For example, putting a coat of gypsum over lime plaster is possible, but doing so will limit the lime plaster's breathability and potentially affect its performance.

Since cement plaster tends to leave a textured surface, no matter how much you smooth it, some people prefer to use gypsum plaster as a topcoat over cement plaster, creating a smoother surface.

All plaster walls will crack over time due to normal house settling and expansion and contraction from temperature and moisture changes. Small, thin hairline cracks are generally not serious and are mostly a cosmetic issue. However, larger or more significant cracks can indicate structural problems.

Here's how to tell the difference:

  • Cosmetic Cracks: Cracks that are 0.5 cm (0.2 inches) or thinner are typically cosmetic.

  • Structural Cracks: Cracks wider than 0.5 cm, excessive or deep cracks, multiple cracks in the same area, or cracks that span around corners can signify a structural or foundation issue. Cracks along the joints where walls meet the ceiling also warrant attention.

For cracks wider than 0.5 cm, structural repair is needed. If a crack is 2.5 cm (1 inch) or wider, or if you notice any signs of a structural problem, it is best to contact a plaster repair professional to assess the damage.

It depends on the construction of your wall. Most handypeople can fix small holes in drywall. If your wall is plaster or brick, more significant damage may require a drywall contractor or a mason. Hiring a handyperson costs less than a more specialized type of contractor, but they’re not trained in all types of wall repairs.

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.
