Plaster repair for Chestermere’s older homes and acreages
Plaster repair for Chestermere’s older homes and acreages
While most of Chestermere is newer drywall construction, some of the original lake-area cottages and older acreages around the town still have plaster walls and ceilings. Plaster cracks, sags and separates from its lath differently than drywall, and needs a different repair approach — we assess whether to patch in place, skim-coat over, or transition to drywall where the plaster is too far gone.

Plaster vs. drywall in older Chestermere properties
Why some Chestermere homes still have plaster
A handful of the original lake-area cottages and acreages that predate Chestermere’s incorporation as a town still carry plaster-and-lath walls and ceilings, built before drywall became the standard material.
How we decide the repair approach
If the plaster is basically sound with isolated cracks or holes, we patch and blend it. If large sections have separated from the lath or crumbled, converting that section to drywall is often more durable and cost-effective than trying to save failing plaster.
What a plaster repair job in Chestermere looks like
Securing and patching
Loose plaster gets re-secured to the lath before any surface patching happens — patching over unstable plaster just fails again later.
Matching the original finish
Old plaster often has a subtly different texture than modern drywall compound — we work to blend new patches into the existing surface so the repair does not stand out.
