What does water damage on a plaster ceiling look like?

• <div><p>Look for flaking paint or air bubbles that burst and then flake away. Paint will begin to flake after being exposed to minimal moisture or water, so it’s a good indicator of any water damage. If you notice your paint starting to flake, feel the plaster underneath to see if it is soft or damp.</p></div>

Is it difficult to drywall a ceiling?

• <div><p>It is more difficult to drywall a ceiling than it is to drywall a wall, but not so hard that DIYers can’t tackle it. One of the main issues with hanging drywall on your ceiling is getting it into place. Drywall isn’t light so, if you are hanging full drywall panels, you will need at least two (it’s better with more) people to hold the panel while you drill it into the ceiling as a single piece can weigh between 40 and 60 pounds and will need to be held in place for up to 10 minutes.</p></div>

Q: How can professionals ensure seamless drywall patching?

• <div><p>Through expert matching of texture and paint for an invisible repair.</p></div>

Q: Should you leave a gap between drywall sheets?

• <div><p>You should leave a gap between drywall sheets because they naturally expand and contract along with the building framing as temperature and humidity change. Most pro drywall installers leave a gap of about ⅛ inch between drywall sheets, allowing the sheets to expand, contract, and shift without cracking or becoming damaged. If you don&rsquo;t leave enough gaps between slabs, the edges will press against each other when they expand, and the pressure can cause visible cracks.</p></div>

Q: Should you skim coat plaster?

• <div><p>You can skim coat plaster, but it&rsquo;s better to repair the plaster itself. A skim coat is a thin coat of drywall joint compound spread over the surface of a wall. The result is a flat finish that looks pleasing, but part of the appeal of plaster is its imperfections and aesthetic. Skim coating is best when limited to drywall applications. </p></div>
