Plaster repair in Rundle, blended into the original wall

The plaster is the first thing to show settling in an older Rundle home: hairline cracks, pulled-away bulges, failing old repair edges. In Rundle we repair plaster walls and ceilings and blend the work into the surrounding surface, or skim the whole wall to a flat modern finish. Rundle is an established NE Calgary community of older homes where repair and stipple-ceiling work are common, so plaster work here ranges from spot crack repair to full-wall resurfacing. We cover Rundle, Saddle Ridge, Martindale, Taradale and every Calgary quadrant, 7 days a week.

What affects the cost of plaster repair in Rundle?

Crack repair vs bulging plaster

The cost of plaster repair in Rundle depends on whether it is a surface crack, bulging plaster that has separated from the lath, or a failed section that needs cutting out. Timeline in Rundle depends on depth: surface cracks go fast, failed sections needing re-securing or replacement do not. We assess on site and give a fixed price first.

Repair vs skim-over in Rundle

Many plaster walls here are best skim-coated over once the damage is stabilised — it brings an old wall back to a flat, modern finish rather than chasing endless cracks. We tell you honestly which makes sense for your Rundle home.

Our Rundle plaster repair process, step by step

Stabilise the plaster first

A plaster repair in Rundle only lasts if the plaster is stable. In Rundle, lath separation means re-securing — crumbling means cutting back to solid plaster before the patch. Most re-cracked Rundle patches trace to that shortcut.

The patch-skim-blend fix

Proper plaster material, a flat skim of the area or whole wall, wide feathering and a paint-ready sand. In most Rundle homes, once it is painted you will not find where we worked. Housing in Rundle is mixed, which is why we look before we quote rather than after.

Plaster or skim-coat? What is right for your Rundle home

Keeping the plaster

Where the plaster in your Rundle home is largely sound, we repair the damaged areas and blend — the most cost-effective option.

Skimming to a modern finish

Where a wall has widespread cracking or an uneven, wavy surface, we skim-coat it flat for a clean modern finish, or remove failed plaster and re-board with drywall. Both come up here, and we match whatever finish your Rundle walls and ceilings already have. Rundle spans a range of build eras, so what is behind the wall differs street to street.

Common plaster repair situations in Rundle

In Rundle, by now most Rundle homes have been through at least one round of renovation, so we regularly patch drywall left rough behind old cabinetry or flooring trim, and skim whole rooms flat when owners are finally removing the original textured ceiling. One fixed price after an honest on-site look, and the job done right the first time.
