What causes cracks in plaster walls?
Cracks in plaster walls can be caused by several factors including natural settling of the building, humidity changes, temperature fluctuations, and even vibrations from nearby construction or heavy traffic. Over time, plaster can dry out and become brittle, making it more prone to cracking. Minor hairline cracks are often cosmetic, but larger or recurring cracks might indicate structural movement or water damage, which should be assessed before patching.
How do you repair a hole in plaster properly?
To repair a hole in plaster, the area is first cleaned and any loose material is removed. For small holes, a patching compound is applied in layers, allowing each to dry before sanding smooth. For larger holes, a backing mesh or patch may be needed to reinforce the area. Once filled and sanded, the wall is primed before painting to ensure the repaired section blends seamlessly with the rest of the surface.
Can you paint directly over repaired plaster?
While it’s possible to paint directly over repaired plaster, it’s highly recommended to prime the area first. Fresh plaster is porous and can absorb paint unevenly, which may result in patchy finishes. A primer seals the surface, ensures better paint adhesion, and creates a uniform base coat. If you're matching an existing colour, this step also helps maintain consistency across the wall.
