Today we are back to our plaster restoration project in Cheektowaga, We started this project 2 weeks ago, the home had some ugly water damage due to an ice dam (a common thread this year). After the plaster was repaired, we have to wait for a minimum of 7 days prior to painting the new plaster. Its about the only downside to traditional plaster repair.
The homeowner asked asked us to skim coat the ceiling. Prior to leaving the first time, we skim coated the ceiling the first coat, and today we did the second pass on the living room ceiling as well as do some more wall work.
We are painting the walls, so all damage has to be fixed first. At Carrigan Painting, we do not paint over damage.. At the same time, we are on a tight schedule this week and need to get the job done, so to help move things along, we ran first coat of paint on the wall areas that were not waiting to dry.
Tomorrow we will sand the ceiling, sand the patches that we did today, and then prime everything. After that, we will begin applying paint to all the large surfaces. Hopefully we will have this wrapped up tomorrow.
More to come!
