Plaster ceiling and wall repair in an old Philadelphia home

From Chestnut Hill Colonials to South Philly rowhomes, many Philadelphia houses have original plaster walls and ceilings. Plaster is durable and beautiful, but it cracks and loosens over time.

Common plaster problems

  • Hairline and stress cracks
  • Loose or bulging sections that have separated from the lath
  • Water-damaged ceilings
  • Holes from old fixtures and hardware

How we repair plaster

We re-secure loose plaster, fill and reinforce cracks, and skim-coat for a smooth, paint-ready surface. For larger areas we blend repairs into the surrounding wall so they disappear under paint. Learn more about our drywall and plaster repair service.

Then a flawless finish

Once repairs cure, we prime and paint for a seamless result. Homeowners in historic areas like Chestnut Hill trust us to keep their walls looking original.
