Ceiling Repair

Water damage, cracks, sagging, and stains repaired and refinished so your ceiling looks whole again.

Overview

Craftsmanship you can see

A damaged ceiling is the first thing people notice and the last thing you want to look at. We repair water-stained, cracked, and sagging ceilings, cut out and replace failed sections, and refinish the whole surface so the repair blends in.

Once the source of any leak is handled, we make the ceiling structurally sound again, then plaster or skim it flat and smooth. From a small stain in a Somerville condo to a sagging plaster ceiling in an older home, we bring it back to a clean, even finish.
