A drywall contractor hangs drywall sheets, tapes and finishes joints, applies texture and repairs damaged walls and ceilings. Plaster specialists repair and restore traditional plaster walls.
Often, yes. Cracks, small holes and loose areas can usually be repaired, reattached or skim coated. Large sections that have separated from the lath may need replacement, which a plaster specialist can assess.
