"John repaired some water damaged ceilings in my house a month ago. The job was fairly extensive and needed the plaster to match the swirl pattern in the rest of the house. He did a very good job for me and kept the place clean by sealing off the area with plastic sheeting and covering the entire hardwood floor with heavy paper. The job took two people two days and cost $1,500.
Since John worked out so well, I brought him back for another smaller plastering job after a plumber had finished repairing some pipes for me. He repaired some areas that had severe water damage and needed the old plaster cut out and replaced. The job took two people 3/4 of a day and cost $550. He knew exactly what to do, did good work, and cleaned up after himself. I am an engineer who has contracted many private contractors to rebuild an renovate several homes that I have lived in over the years and can say with no reservations that John is top quality at a good price.

"Our family did a huge addition with a family basement(playroom) living room/dining room & master bedroom. Colin McCarthy's plastering was truly excellent!! He even did venetian plastering on my dining room ceiling. My husband & I were SO impressed by his work/work ethic. He was prompt, highly efficient & left the house clean every day. We enthusiastically recommend McCarthy plastering for ANY home remodeling!"

"I hired Bertie to repair some ceilings in my kitchen, living room, and bathroom. He did a really nice job and left the house tidy when it was all said and done. He was responsive to my calls, and very friendly and professional. The work looks great and I've already recommended him to a friend. He is definitely a plaster guy I'd call in the future."

"We had fantastic work and timeline from Bob. They replastered our textured ceilings over 4 days and did a fantastic job. Bob was quick and easy to communicate with, as well as scheduling (estimate and work days). Several other contractors who came through the house complimented their work and the speed of the job."

"Robert installed a ceiling below my current ceiling for soundproofing reasons. He is excellent to work with, very knowledgeable, clear and clean. He installed the ceiling in one day and cleaned up everything after. He's very easy to communicate with and walks you through every step of the process. I'm having him install a second ceiling in a different room because he made the process painless. Probably the best contractor I've worked with to date."

"The MJM Crew led by Matt did an excellent job. I could not be more satisfied with the finished work. They were on time and cleaned up after themselves. The pricing was reasonable as well. I would hire them again for any projects involving plaster."

"I could not be more happy with the results of my new 18 x 24 feet room-over-garage. Lots of 45-degree angles which made it challenging along with a 10 ft high ceiling. All corners are perfect. Connected me with a professional drywall hanger who hung the drywall in one day. Gary performed the taping, coating, skimming, and sanding in 5 contiguous days. Was always here on time. Very good communicator. This is the type of work that requires several years of experience and Gary has it. I would hire him again in a second. You can not go wrong with Gary Ellis Drywall!"

Customers say: Quick response
"Matt was super responsive and kind. He got in and did the job within days of us requesting a quote. We are finishing our basement which is cement blocks. We attempted to start to plaster and decided we could not do it. Matt and his team plastered the walls over where we had failed and made them look gorgeous. We were not home at the time and when we got home, our jaws dropped. Highly recommend."
Load-bearing walls support the weight of your home's structure, including floors, roofs, and other building components. Non-load-bearing walls, on the other hand, serve only as partitions or room dividers. All exterior walls are typically load-bearing, even if they have design features like bump-outs or large glass panels. These walls need precise construction to ensure your home's structural integrity.
Removing a wall costs anywhere from $300 to $10,000 , depending on the size and whether it's load-bearing. Removing load-bearing walls is a more labor-intensive process and typically costs more. To get an accurate estimate for your project, consult a local contractor with the specifics of your wall.
Yes, there are other projects you can tackle at the same time when building a wall. Upgrading to energy-efficient windows or doors can enhance your home’s sustainability and can be integrated into the wall construction process. You might also consider removing existing walls to create an open-concept layout or building a home addition for extra space. Coordinating multiple projects can be cost-effective and streamline your renovation timeline. Discuss your goals with a contractor to help you plan effectively and maximize the benefits of your renovation.
The cost to build a partition wall varies depending on the size and type you choose. Half walls that don't reach the ceiling cost about $10 to $20 per linear foot . Full partition walls made with drywall may cost more due to additional materials and labor. Prices for accordion or panel walls vary widely based on materials and design. Factors like electrical work, insulation, and finishes will also influence your total cost.
Framing is the backbone of wall construction, creating a secure structure that supports everything else. Quality framing ensures that studs, electrical wiring, and plumbing are properly integrated into your home's design. A professional installer uses reliable materials like wood or metal to build a framework that meets building codes and ensures your wall is durable and safe.
