Common questions about plaster and masonry issues

Short answer first. Then a bit more context on likely causes.

Are cracks always dangerous?

No, but cracks can indicate movement or moisture damage. We help assess the scope.

Why is plaster coming loose?

It can be caused by moisture, incompatible materials or movement in the substrate. Start with Plaster detaching—and if you want help fixing it, we can help with plastering and repairs.

Do I need to fix everything at once?

Not always. Sometimes local repairs are enough. We recommend the right scope for your facade.

Can you help with chimneys too?

Yes. We work with masonry, plaster and chimneys—and can coordinate with a chimney sweep/inspector when needed.

How do I know which materials are needed?

We assess the substrate and select materials compatible with the structure. As a rule of thumb, avoid pairing very “hard” materials with “soft” ones—see lime mortar vs cement.

What does an assessment cost?

We offer free site visits within our service areas.

How quickly can you help?

It depends on season and scope. We will propose a timeline.
