"Hired KO to re-plaster my dining room, living room, and front entry way walls and ceiling. Plasterers James and Luke and their team were awesome. They handled the job in 5 days and now the front half of my house looks amazing. When I was getting this quoted by other companies, I thought I was never going to be able to afford the work. But KO came in at an affordable price and did an awesome job! Definitely recommend to any one looking plaster repair work."

"We own an 86 year old house.Our living room ceiling, 30 X 15 feet, had for some
time needed significant plaster repair. By the time we hired Mudslingers, the
plaster was threatening to separate in large chunks from the wood lathe and
fall to the wood floors and onto the piano.
Chris and his workers protected the floors with backer board, taped closed all doorways with plastic
and proceeded to remove all of the plaster. This was a somewhat complicated job
in that we asked that the ceiling coves surrounding the entire room be
preserved and that the final applied texture matches the dining room ceiling.
Chris was able to leave the coves unharmed and installed drywall over the
remaining lathe and up to the cove. He blended the new drywall with the coves. A
plaster texture was applied to match the adjacent dining room.
 Unfortunately when the plastering was finished it did not match the dining room. And here is why we
feel compelled to write this review. We informed Chris that the texturing would have to be completely redone so that it matched the dining room exactly. Chris was disappointed but got to work. He said, ?I just want you to be happy
with my work?. He and his crew sanded off all of the previously done work.
Chris used a completely different technique and was able to match the texture
of the dining room ceiling! In addition, Chris repaired two wall cracks and
repainted the entire living room without additional charge. The backer board
and plastic protectors were removed and the crew washed the entire room down:
floors, baseboards, and window trim. Our living room was left in pristine
condition.
We interviewed 3 other contractors prior to Mudslinger's who said our job was too
large and complicated and turned us down. Mudslinger?s provided a
professionally prepared contract and worked from September 21st-October 13th,2015.
 
Businesses are people. The true measure of a business can be found in how a less than acceptable result is
managed by that business. We are completely satisfied with Mudslinger?s work
and more importantly how they met our expectations. It is because of the
quality of his work and the fact that Mudslingers honored our contract that we recommend
Mudslingers and would hire Chris again.

"Geronimo Plaster was awesome to work with. Every step of the process was excellent, from the very first contact on the phone to the completion of the work Geronimo Plaster was a true professional. Geronimo Plaster has unbeatable prices, free estimates and they do top-notch work. I had a large-sized hole in my bathroom ceiling and when Geronimo Plaster got done with the work my ceiling looked new. You couldn’t even tell that I ever had a hole in my ceiling. Most of the time when people repair drywall, afterwards you can see lines and crevices where the work was done. Not with Geronimo Plaster! My ceiling was smooth and looked like new when he was finished with the job. Also, you don’t have to worry about cleaning up anything afterwards because they did a good job of that as well. Geronimo Plaster came in and knocked the job out without playing around. Some companies milk the job so they can charge you for more hours. Not Geronimo Plaster. They were all business no games. Geronimo Plaster is trustworthy, reliable and professional. If anyone needs any home repair or remodeling work done I can say from my own personal experience with Geronimo Plaster that you can hire them with peace, knowing that the job is in good hands."

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

Ceiling-mounted curtains won’t damage the ceiling if they’re installed properly. Using the right anchors or securing the brackets into joists will ensure the curtain weight is properly supported and prevent damage. However, overtightening screws, using weak anchors, or repeatedly removing and reinstalling hardware in the same spot can cause cracking or sagging over time. In that case, you might have to call a pro for ceiling repair.

Only use spackle on plaster walls when the imperfection is small. It’s best used for nail holes or small dings in the plaster. Spackle dries quickly, allowing you to continue the repair process shortly after using it. Plaster can be tricky to repair, though, so if you run into issues, call a pro so that you don’t risk further damage.

Common causes include water leaks, settling, and impact. Address underlying issues to prevent recurring damage.

Yes, you can speed up the time it takes for plaster to dry, but it's important to do so carefully to avoid issues like cracking or crumbling. Proper ventilation is key; open a window or use a fan to circulate air in the room. Heat can also accelerate drying, but be cautious, as too much heat can cause the plaster to dry too quickly and crack. Check the plaster's packaging for the recommended drying temperature and set the room's thermostat accordingly. While managing humidity is important, avoid using a dehumidifier, which can remove moisture too aggressively and result in crumbly plaster.

Although they are used for similar tasks, spackle and joint compound are not the same. Joint compound, also known as drywall mud, consists of limestone and gypsum and is primarily used for large-scale projects like taping and finishing seams on new drywall. Spackle is composed of gypsum and binding agents, making it a thicker compound best suited for small wall repairs like filling nail holes or cracks, as it dries quickly and is easy to sand. For small repairs, either product can be suitable. However, you can use joint compound for small jobs in place of spackle, but you cannot use spackle for large-scale taping and mudding projects.
