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.

Mine was built in 1953, just a pup. But I cheaped out and skinned the office area between the kitchen, garage and family room in 1/4" drywall then painted. Looks killer. The walls were so badly beat up from previous tennants, ones who were carted off by the DEA, that I didn't want to bother trying to repair the original plaster.

Drywall=good!
