Why Old-Miami Walls Deserve a Specialist
Half the charm of a Miami Springs pueblo or a Miami Shores Mediterranean is in the plaster — curves, coves, and textures modern drywall can't fake. We repair and replicate original plaster where it matters — including Opa-locka's Moorish Revival detail — and transition to modern systems where it doesn't, so the house keeps its soul and loses its cracks.
Ceilings are the other half of that work. Sprayed acoustic texture covers a large share of South Florida homes from the 1960s and 70s, and whether it should be scraped, skim-coated over, or covered depends mostly on whether anyone ever painted it.
Plastering FAQs
Can you match my existing wall texture?
Yes — knockdown, orange peel, skip trowel, or smooth. Blended patches are the job, not an extra.
Should cracks be repaired or is it structural?
Most Miami cracks are settlement and moisture movement, not structure. We'll tell you honestly which one you have.
Do you do full skim coats?
Yes — full level-5 skim coats are our most-requested finish in renovated homes.
What is a level-5 finish and when is it worth it?
Level 5 is a full skim coat over the entire wall — the smoothest drywall finish there is. It's worth it wherever raking light hits: living areas, kitchens, and anywhere gloss or dark paint is going.
