Is spot repair enough for my Hollick-Kenyon plaster, or should the wall be skimmed?

It depends on the wall. In Hollick-Kenyon, isolated cracks in sound plaster mean spot repair — widespread cracking or waves mean a full skim. We give you a straight answer for your Hollick-Kenyon home.

My Hollick-Kenyon plaster is bulging off the lath — fixable?

Yes. In Hollick-Kenyon we re-fasten lath-separated plaster or replace what has failed, finishing with a skim-blend that hides the repair.

Do you stand behind your plaster repair in Hollick-Kenyon?

Yes. We walk every Hollick-Kenyon job with you before we pack up, and if something is not right we come back and make it right.

Can you match plaster to my drywall reno in Hollick-Kenyon?

Yes — blending old plaster into new drywall is common in Hollick-Kenyon renos. Thickness and texture get matched on Hollick-Kenyon repairs — no visible line under paint.

Repair or full-wall skim — which is right for Hollick-Kenyon plaster?

It depends on the wall. A few cracks in solid Hollick-Kenyon plaster we spot-fix; walls with extensive cracking or waviness do better skimmed flat. We give you a straight answer for your Hollick-Kenyon home.

Do you repair Hollick-Kenyon plaster that has separated from the lath?

Yes. Separated Hollick-Kenyon plaster gets re-anchored to the lath — or failed sections replaced — then skimmed and blended invisible.

What affects the cost of plaster repair in Hollick-Kenyon?

Crack repair vs bulging plaster

The cost of plaster repair in Hollick-Kenyon depends on whether it is a surface crack, bulging plaster that has separated from the lath, or a failed section that needs cutting out.
