OUr new house has some plaster ceiling (it's an old house) and I haven't done much reading myself on this but I'm starting here. We've got some cracks int he surface plaster, I was wondering if anyone had some experience with having their ceilings refinished - plaster or otherwise. I have heard of some people putting wall board up instead of newplaster but I have not seen in. The newer addition to the house has this kind of ceiling.
The ceilings do need refinishing, it isn't something I can let go. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) |
