Plaster Repair & Painting
Plaster Ceiling Repair Service
We specialize in plaster ceiling repairs. At Carrigan Painting we use real plaster to repair plaster whenever possible. A plaster patch is superior to a drywall patch in every way - except dry time. New plaster requires 3-14 days to dry.
Plaster Crack Repair Service
We also repair plaster cracks. Small cracks, hairline cracks are typically the result of natural movement of the structure (Buffalo winters). Large open cracks however signify substantial movement. Our method of repairing plaster cracks has a 95% success rate. If it re-cracks after our method, the crack can not be repaired.
Quality Plaster Repair Service
At Carrigan Painting we prime all of our repairs. We do this because it shows us the imperfections in our patches. Fresh plaster, and water stains require an oil base primer. Many wrongly assume that you can prime 10 day old fresh plaster with shellac primer. From actual experience we can tell you this is false. Oil based primer is required for all new plaster less than 28 days old. It usually dries with in 30 minutes and then the odor is gone. All of our latex paints are zero V.O.C.

This is very labor intensive, and often involves a considerable amount of dust. Level 5 finishing is when a very thin layer of drywall compound is applied to wall and ceilings to give the surfaces a uniform texture and look.
