Rochester’s older homes — many with original horsehair plaster over wood lath — are prone to unique damage from the region’s freeze-thaw cycles and high humidity. The work begins with a thorough assessment: we identify loose or bulging sections, check for moisture intrusion behind the plaster, and determine whether the lath is still sound. For small cracks and holes, we use a bonding agent and a multi-step patching compound that matches the original texture and hardness. Larger areas may require cutting back to the lath, installing new metal or wood lath, and applying multiple coats of plaster with proper drying time between each. The final finish is feathered to blend seamlessly with the surrounding wall, preserving the historic character of the property. Why does this matter specifically in Rochester? Our older neighborhoods — from the 19th Ward to Brown Square — feature many homes built before drywall was common. Plaster breathes differently than modern materials, and improper repairs can trap moisture, leading to further cracking or even mold. Additionally, Rochester’s heavy snowfall and frequent freeze-thaw cycles cause exterior plaster to expand and contract. We use flexible, weather-resistant compounds that accommodate this movement without cracking. Whether it’s a Victorian porch ceiling or a stucco-style exterior wall, our plaster repair work restores both the structural integrity and the visual continuity of your home. ## Areas We Cover in Rochester We proudly serve plaster repair needs across Rochester, including the 19th Ward, ABC Streets Neighborhood, Arnett, Barnard, Beechwood, and Brown Square. Our team is familiar with the architectural styles common to each area, from the Arts and Crafts bungalows in Arnett to the Colonial Revivals in Beechwood. We also work near landmarks such as Seneca Park Zoo, where you might spot the African Black-footed Penguin, African Elephant, African Spurred Tortoise, or Amar Tiger — just a short drive from the neighborhoods we regularly visit. Whether your property is in the heart of the city or on its quieter edges, we bring the same attention to detail. ## What to Expect When you schedule plaster repair with us, here is what the process typically involves: - A careful inspection to identify the root cause of damage — not just the visible crack. - Protection of your floors, furniture, and landscaping with drop cloths and plastic sheeting. - Removal of loose or crumbling plaster, followed by cleaning and priming the substrate. - Application of bonding agent and plaster in layers, with proper drying time between coats. - Final sanding and blending to match the existing texture, whether smooth, skip-trowel, or stucco. - Cleanup of all debris and dust, leaving your space ready for painting or finishing. We do not rush the drying process — Rochester’s climate requires patience to ensure the repair lasts. Ready to restore your plaster? Contact Exterior Painting Rochester for a free consultation.
