Plaster repairs we can help with.
Existing plaster can become damaged for many different reasons. We assess the condition of the surrounding area and recommend an appropriate repair method rather than automatically replacing more than necessary.

Repair or replacement of water-affected plaster once the original leak or moisture issue has been rectified.

Assessment and repair of damaged ceiling sections, loose plasterboard and areas requiring partial replacement.
Solid Plaster Repairs

Repairs After Other Trades
Plaster repairs following electrical, plumbing, air-conditioning and other building works.
Repair or Replace?
Not every damaged wall or ceiling needs replacing.
In many cases, damaged plaster can be repaired without removing the entire wall or ceiling. The right approach depends on the cause of the damage, how secure the surrounding plaster is and the condition of the existing substrate.
Where sections are loose, badly deteriorated or affected by repeated movement or moisture, partial removal and replacement may provide a better long-term result.
We can assess the existing area and explain the practical repair options before the work begins.
Older Melbourne Homes
Repairing older and existing plaster.
Many Melbourne homes contain older solid plaster, horsehair plaster, lath-and-plaster ceilings or previous repairs completed over many decades.
Older plaster can behave differently from modern plasterboard. Some areas may be suitable for repair, while loose or deteriorated sections may need to be removed and replaced.
RSG Plastering has extensive experience working with existing walls and ceilings and can recommend a practical approach based on the condition of the property.

Frequently Asked Questions
Plaster repair questions.
Can you repair cracks in plaster walls and ceilings?
Yes. We repair cracking in plasterboard and older plaster systems. The appropriate repair method depends on the cause of the crack and the condition of the surrounding plaster.
Do you take on smaller plaster repair jobs?
Yes. RSG Plastering undertakes suitable residential plaster repair work throughout Melbourne, including damaged walls, cracked ceilings, holes and localised replacement work.
Can you repair water-damaged plaster?
Yes, provided the original water leak or moisture source has already been identified and rectified. Depending on the damage, the affected plaster may need repair or replacement.
Do you repair old solid plaster?
Yes. We regularly work with older solid plaster walls and ceilings. Loose, drummy or badly deteriorated areas may require additional removal before the repair can be completed.
