Can my old plaster walls and ceilings be repaired even though they are cracked and peeling down to the lath? Or do they need to be gutted and replaced with new sheet rock?

There are many methods available for repairing old plaster walls and ceilings. Our method has proven to stand the test of time and has been used by plastering professionals for several decades. We can restore old, cracked and peeling plaster. Using a fiberglass mesh system and expert plastering techniques, we can make your old walls look like new again. This method of repairing creates less mess than gutting and is usually more cost effective than replacing the plaster with sheet rock. In addition, applying sheet rock over plaster walls can cause you to lose the profile of your existing molding.
