Questions we get asked
How do I know if I need a plasterer or just paint?
If the surface is cracked, bulging, flaking, or missing chunks, paint won't fix it. We look at the wall or ceiling and tell you if it needs patching, a skim coat, or just cleaning and repainting.
Why is my plaster cracking?
Older homes in Provo often have original lath and plaster that shifts as the house settles. It can also crack from humidity changes or a loose lath base behind the plaster. We open up a small section to see what's actually causing it before we quote a fix.
Can you match the texture in my older home?
Yes. We look at the existing texture and pattern first, then test a sample patch next to it before doing the full repair. This matters more on older hand-troweled plaster than on newer drywall texture.
How long does plaster need to dry before I paint?
Plaster needs to cure fully before paint goes on, or the paint can trap moisture and fail. Drying time depends on the thickness of the coat and the humidity in the room, so we'll tell you a realistic window for your job specifically.
Do you work on stucco too?
Yes, stucco is an exterior plaster system and we repair cracks, chips, and hollow spots in it. We match the existing texture as closely as we can when patching.
Will plastering make a big mess in my house?
There's dust from sanding and some wet material during application. We cover floors and furniture in the work area before we start and clean up before we leave each day.
