Q: Can I repair plaster myself?

• <div><p>It is possible to repair plaster yourself, but we don&rsquo;t recommend it. Plaster repair is easy in theory but difficult in practice. Applying repair plaster is straightforward, but ensuring the area is prepped properly to receive the new plaster and ensuring that the finished product looks smooth and professional both demand experience. Plus, repairs are especially difficult if you have a <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-popcorn-ceiling-removal-cost.htm">textured ceiling</a> or walls. Paying for professional plaster repair is worth the investment if you want your wall to look good as new.</p></div>

Q: How do I match the wall texture after making repairs?

• <div><p>It may take a bit of patience and trial and error to match your particular <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/drywall-texture-tips-and-trends.htm">drywall texture type</a> 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. </p></div>

Q: How do I find a good plaster repair company?

• <div><p>If you&rsquo;re looking for a reliable plaster repair company, you should start by researching local companies in your area and reviewing their status with the Better Business Bureau. Next, you can contact the potential companies to ask about experience levels, get a list of references, and ask for examples of past work. If you have a textured wall, consider asking if they have examples or references for that particular texture. This method should help you narrow your search even further. You may also want to ask each company if they provide a warranty for their work.</p></div>

Q: How long does Venetian plaster last?

• <div><p>Once dried, Venetian plaster becomes a rock-like substance that&rsquo;s durable and excellent at resisting damage. If properly sealed to resist moisture and maintained, Venetian plaster should last for at least a decade but potentially as long as a lifetime. Thanks to its mineral content, it can also develop a patina.</p></div>

Q: Can I do my own plastering?

• <div><p>It is possible to apply plaster on the interior or exterior of your home, but we don&rsquo;t recommend it. Plaster is easy to apply in theory, but in reality, it can be a challenging material to work with, and it&rsquo;s difficult to get the finished product to look clean, even, and smooth. Many DIYers end up calling in a professional afterward to touch up the area or even redo it entirely because of mistakes they made in the process. Hiring a plaster pro will cost more, but it&rsquo;s usually the best option to achieve high-quality results.</p></div>
