"I had hired Richard's company to install a new fan in our bathroom.  They installed the fan but chipped the plaster around the edge of the fan and then left the plaster on the floor covering it with the bathmats.  I didn't intend to use NE Renovations again, but decided that all of the glowing recommendations from Angie's List must not be wrong.  I contacted Richard to install a new kitchen faucet the I had purchased. I told him about the plaster issue.  He came and installed my faucet when he said he would.  Several weeks later I emailed him to ask when he was going to send the invoice and he told me that he was not going to charge me because of the previous issue.  This kind of customer service is hard to find these days."

"Daniel is a consummate professional! He is also a masterful woodworker. His artistry is superb. We had a situation where we moved into a new house, and there was a huge awkwardly shaped step/platform 23 feet long and 5-9 feet wide) in the middle of what we wanted to be the dining room . We wanted that step removed but we needed to save the wood from the step in order to make it match with the rest of the wood flooring. Daniel gently and respectfully removed the wood and the step and was able to save all the wood and then rebuild it into and match the rest of the wood floor. He succeeded brilliantly! You can not even tell that there was a step there now.! What not only are thrilled with the results but, we were equally impressed with Daniels work ethic. He is so incredibly neat and tidy. He built a kind of plastic room around where he was working so that the dust and residue of the wood working/flooring would not spread anywhere else in our home. He was so incredibly respectful of us and our house. Daniel is very easy to chat with and give direction to. He is also excellent at communicating the process of what has to be done and what he is going to do. I had never had work done in my home prior to this, so I was concerned with how much of a disruption removing that step would be. Daniel changed my thinking. He was not a disruption at all. He is very focused on his work and does not impede or infringe upon the rest of the workings of the household in any way. He was always on time and always communicated with me as to when he would be finishing up at the end of the day.. I highly highly recommend this very talented, skilled man.."

"Much of the work was done in anticipation of the arrival of a new range/oven unit. It was functionally correct, but the tall outlet 'box' prevented ideal placement of the range/oven. Infinity Solutions returned to make small adjustments. We're delighted with the final result and with knowing who we're going to call next time."

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

The cost to repair a ceiling after a water leak can vary, with averages ranging from $419 to $1,359, or $45 to $55 per square foot. Smaller patches may cost around $150. The final price depends on the size of the affected area and the extent of the damage. Remember that you will also need to repair the source of the leak, such as roof damage or a plumbing issue, which can cost an additional $200 to $1,550. Depending on the situation, you might also face costs for repainting or repairing floors. For an accurate estimate, it is best to get a quote from a professional.

You can plaster over regular drywall, but it's essential to prepare the surface properly. Before plastering, the drywall should be clean, free of dust, and any loose or peeling paint should be removed. Applying a primer specifically designed for plastering can improve adhesion. Some professionals recommend applying a base coat of plaster or joint compound to create a better surface for the plaster to adhere to. Proper preparation ensures a smooth and durable plaster finish over regular drywall.

How long it takes to repair a ceiling depends on the extent of the damage. Patching a small hole might only take a few minutes, while repairing a water-damaged section of the ceiling could take hours. If there are structural issues, expect your ceiling repair to take several days or longer.

Ensures structural integrity and aesthetic consistency with proper materials and techniques.

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.
