Plaster repair in Ogilvie Ridge, blended into the original wall

As older Ogilvie Ridge houses settle, the plaster tells the story: hairline cracking, lath separation bulges, crumbling around past repairs. In Ogilvie Ridge we repair plaster walls and ceilings and blend the work into the surrounding surface, or skim the whole wall to a flat modern finish. Ogilvie Ridge is an established south Edmonton community of 1960s-70s homes where ceiling stipple, settling cracks and dated texture are common, so plaster work here ranges from spot crack repair to full-wall resurfacing. We cover Ogilvie Ridge, Aspen Gardens, Bearspaw, Blue Quill and Whitemud, 7 days a week.

Plaster or skim-coat? What is right for your Ogilvie Ridge home

Keeping the plaster

Where the plaster in your Ogilvie Ridge home is largely sound, we repair the damaged areas and blend — the most cost-effective option.

Skimming to a modern finish

Where a wall has widespread cracking or an uneven, wavy surface, we skim-coat it flat for a clean modern finish, or remove failed plaster and re-board with drywall. Both come up here, and we match whatever finish your Ogilvie Ridge walls and ceilings already have.

What affects the cost of plaster repair in Ogilvie Ridge?

Crack repair vs bulging plaster

The cost of plaster repair in Ogilvie Ridge depends on whether it is a surface crack, bulging plaster that has separated from the lath, or a failed section that needs cutting out. A Ogilvie Ridge surface crack is a fast repair; lath re-anchoring or plaster replacement is the bigger job. We assess on site and give a fixed price first.

Repair vs skim-over in Ogilvie Ridge

Many plaster walls here are best skim-coated over once the damage is stabilised — it brings an old wall back to a flat, modern finish rather than chasing endless cracks. We tell you honestly which makes sense for your Ogilvie Ridge home.

Our Ogilvie Ridge plaster repair process, step by step

Stabilise the plaster first

A plaster repair in Ogilvie Ridge only lasts if the plaster is stable. The Ogilvie Ridge rule: re-secure what has separated, cut back what is crumbling, patch only into solid material. Miss that step and the Ogilvie Ridge patch cracks again — it is that common.

Patching, skimming, blending

We use material suited to plaster, skim the zone or the entire wall flat, feather beyond the repair and sand to paint-ready. In most Ogilvie Ridge homes, once it is painted you will not find where we worked.
