Common Questions

PLASTER REPAIR FAQ

Should I replace plaster with drywall?

In most cases, we recommend repairing plaster rather than replacing it. Plaster is more durable, provides better soundproofing, and maintains your home's historic value.

Why do plaster walls crack?

Cracks typically result from house settling, temperature changes, or the plaster separating from its lath. We address the cause as part of our repairs.

How do you match existing textures?

Our craftsmen use traditional tools and techniques to replicate original textures. We can match smooth finishes, sand finishes, and decorative textures.

Is plaster repair expensive?

Repairs are typically less expensive than full replacement and preserve your home's value. We provide detailed estimates so you know costs upfront.
