In Akron, many homes—especially those in historic districts like Highland Square, Fairlawn Heights, or the neighborhoods surrounding the University of Akron—still have original horsehair plaster walls and ceilings. Over decades, these surfaces develop cracks, bulges, crumbling sections, and areas where the plaster has separated from the wooden lath underneath. A proper plaster repair involves more than just filling the crack with joint compound. The process begins with assessing the damage: loose plaster must be reattached using plaster washers or adhesive, keyed-in areas need to be consolidated, and any missing sections require rebuilding in layers with a lime-based or gypsum-based plaster mix. Unlike drywall, plaster dries by chemical set rather than evaporation, so each coat must be applied with precise timing and technique to avoid delamination later. For Akron properties, this matters because the old plaster breathes differently than modern materials, and a mismatched repair can lead to new cracks within months. Skim coating an entire wall to match texture, or feathering out repairs to blend seamlessly with the original surface, is part of the craft. Whether you have a small crack near a window frame in a Bettes Corners bungalow or a sagging ceiling in a colonial on Brittain Road, the goal is a repair that looks original and holds up for years. The work itself is hands-on and requires patience. First, we remove any loose or crumbling plaster, taking care not to damage the lath beneath. If the lath is broken or rotting, it must be replaced or reinforced. For larger holes, we install new metal or wood lath as a base. Then we apply a brown coat of plaster, scratch it to create a mechanical bond, and let it set before applying a finish coat. For hairline cracks, we widen them slightly, clean out debris, and fill with a flexible patching compound designed for plaster. In areas where the plaster has popped away from the lath (often due to moisture or settling), we use mechanical fasteners or adhesive to pull it back tight. The final step is sanding and blending—but not too much, as over-sanding can damage the surface. Many Akron homeowners choose to have us match the original texture, whether that’s a smooth float finish, a skip trowel, or a more rustic orange peel. The result is a durable, seamless repair that preserves the character of older homes while eliminating drafts, dust, and the risk of further deterioration. ## Areas We Cover in Akron We serve the entire Akron area, including Arlington, Austin Estates, Baker’s Acres Estates, the historic Berkshire Park Historic District, Bettes Corners, and Brittain. You’ll find our trucks near landmarks like the 7 17 Credit Union on East Market Street, the 7 Brew Coffee on West Market, the 7-Eleven on Copley Road, and even near 80 Junk Car Buyer Towing Akron off of South Arlington. If you live in one of these neighborhoods or anywhere else within Akron city limits, we can come to your home to assess your plaster repair needs. ## What to Expect When you schedule plaster repair with us, here is what the process typically involves: - A thorough inspection of the damaged area, including checking for moisture issues or structural movement that caused the problem. - A detailed explanation of the repair method needed—whether it’s a simple crack fill, a plaster patch with lath replacement, or a full skim coat. - Protection of your floors and furniture with drop cloths and plastic sheeting. - Minimal dust compared to drywall sanding, but some fine dust is unavoidable; we use HEPA vacuums and wet sanding when possible. - A timeline based on the size of the repair—most small patches are completed in one day, while larger ceiling repairs may require two visits to allow coats to set. - A final walkthrough to ensure the repair blends with the surrounding surface and meets your expectations.
