Patch Repairs vs Full Re-Skims: Which Is Right for Your Home?

Damaged plaster doesn’t always mean an entire room needs to be re-skimmed. In many situations, a carefully completed patch repair can restore the appearance of a wall or ceiling while keeping costs down.

Patch repairs are ideal for isolated areas of damage caused by electrical work, plumbing repairs, accidental knocks, or general wear and tear. When completed properly, the repaired section blends neatly with the surrounding surface.

A full re-skim may be the better option if multiple areas are damaged, the existing plaster has deteriorated over time, or you are renovating an older property and want a completely fresh finish throughout.
