Customers say: Quick response

"Mike is a true professional. Very nice guy, as well. After we had part of our ceiling collapse, he walked in one day, spent about 15 min, eyeballed the damage, and said I'll be back in 3 days, after he finished another job. He showed up 3 days later, and within 5 hours, the job was completed. They cleaned up the job afterwards as well. This is the guy you want to do plastering."

"We looked at a few options for fixing dry and plaster cracks in our home - the patch boys were the cheapest. Very responsive over phone and text. Had a few issues come up after the first fix, but they were quick in coming back to ensure all areas were taken care of. Highly recommend!"

"I highly recommend LJK Drwall to anyone looking for any drywall and plaster work. Roberto and his team showed up on time and kept me informed of progress. The quality of workmanship is top notch. We had extensive areas in need of drywall repair and replacement after having our home replumbed due to a leak from Quest water supply lines. Due to the outstanding work of LJK Drywall you literally cannot tell there was ever any damage."

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

Installing or repairing plaster on ceilings differs slightly from performing the same motions on a wall. You’ll apply slightly less plaster to lower the overall weight of the ceiling. Wall texturing is common, whereas most ceilings are smooth plaster. Tough coat plaster is strong, meaning you can use less while retaining a solid surface.

You will be placing holes in the wall to hang the mounting bracket. If you’re mounting a large TV, the bolts in use could make significant holes around half an inch in diameter. Other than a few holes, though, the process of mounting the TV should not cause significant damage to the wall, unless you make an error and miss the wall stud, tearing out drywall. Should you decide to remove the mount later, the DIY drywall repair cost for a small hole usually is $10 to $30. It’s a repair you can do in a few minutes.

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.

If the holes in the plaster are small, you can fill them with layers of patching plaster until they’re filled. After it dries, you can sand the plaster and paint over it. If the hole is much larger, consider using bonding plaster first and then a layer of patching plaster, completing the process with sanding and a layer of paint.

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.
