Drywall and plaster repair

The goal is a stable patch that takes paint. Plaster-aware repairs are one example of how the job changes with the wall that's actually there.

Holes and dents

Doorknob hits, TV-mount or picture-hanger blowouts, and other openings in drywall or plaster.

Cracks, including plaster stairwells

Hairline and settlement cracks. A plaster wall needs a different repair than a drywall seam.

Ceiling stains and patches after a leak is fixed

We won't close a wet ceiling. Once the leak is stopped, stain-blocking and a drywall or plaster repair can be arranged.

Paint-ready finish

A patch should take paint. We'll be honest about whether a whole-wall paint is needed for a blend.

How a request works

A straightforward path from your message to a clear price — then work only if you say yes.

  1. Send a clear description

    Room, crack or hole, and whether water is still coming in.

  2. We sort plaster from drywall

    That changes the repair. A short callback may be enough to tell.

  3. A visit and a quote — then your OK

    A contractor is arranged when the work calls for one. Color match and paint are discussed before anyone finishes the wall.

Bloomfield walls, in particular

Bloomfield’s tight lots and older brick houses mean stairwells, shared walls, and small bedrooms take most of the wear. Picture rails, door casings, and plaster arches are worth keeping when they can be repaired instead of ripped out.

Houses along the side streets off Liberty Avenue and Penn Avenue often have a remodeled first floor and original plaster upstairs. Tell us which floor the damage is on; the materials may not match.

Questions

Can you make the patch invisible?

A careful plaster repair can take paint very well. Perfect invisibility under raking light isn’t something we’ll guarantee in writing before seeing the wall.

Will you match my wall color?

If you have leftover paint, say so. If not, we can discuss a small touch-up area versus painting the whole wall so the sheen matches.

My ceiling is wet right now.

Don’t patch it yet. Stop the leak first. If you need plumbing or roof help, say that on the form so we don’t schedule a cosmetic patch over an active drip.

Do you do full-room plaster restoration?

This page is for cracks, holes, and limited ceiling repairs. A whole-room historic restoration is a larger project; we’ll tell you if that’s what you’re describing.

Who comes to the house?

A licensed local contractor is arranged when the job requires one. You’ll be told who is coming before the visit.

Is this only for Bloomfield?

Bloomfield is the focus because of the plaster housing stock. Nearby ZIP codes can still request a look.

A photo of the crack in daylight helps, but it’s not required to start.
