Cracked Plastering Repairs

Cracks in walls or ceilings can worsen over time. We identify the root cause and apply the right repair technique — filling, reinforcing, and finishing with care so the crack won’t return.

What Causes Ceilings to Sag?

  • Bad or worn fixings (like nails or glue)
  • Ceiling strips pulling away from beams
  • Water damage from leaks or moisture
  • Wear and tear in older houses
  • Too much insulation weight
  • Shaking and moving over time

Ignoring a drooping ceiling can cause it to completely fall down. This is especially true for older plasterboard ceilings or ones that have taken in too much water. We provide quick and expert repairs to stop more damage and keep your home strong.

Our Sagging Ceiling Repair Process

  1. Inspection & Safety Check – We check how much sagging there is. We find out if there is any damage from water or structure. Then, we give a simple plan of action.

  2. Ceiling Re-Securing or Replacement – If there is damage, we can either re-secure the ceiling with screws and glue, or we will replace the damaged plasterboard panels.

  3. Framing & Reinforcement – If the issue is from moving frames or damage, we repair or strengthen the wooden supports before putting up new boards.

  4. Finishing & Texture Matching – We make sure to blend the repaired areas nicely with the rest of the ceiling. We use plaster and finishes that match.

  5. Cleanup & Disposal – We handle all work while keeping the dust down. We also clean everything up and safely get rid of any damaged materials.
