Is plaster repair & restoration in Tiburon backed by a warranty?

Yes. Your pro backs every Tiburon job with a workmanship warranty of at least 30 days on general repairs and at least 90 days on tile, flooring, doors, and windows, and your pro may offer more. If covered work isn't right inside that window, your pro makes it right at no charge.

What shapes a plaster repair & restoration job

These are the things that make one job different from another. Mention them in your notes so each pro can scope your job properly.

Lath and plaster type

Wood lath, metal lath and masonry backing fail differently, and lime or gypsum plaster needs a matching repair material.

Crack type and activity

Hairline settling cracks, recurring cracks and bulges from broken keys each call for different repair, and active cracks may reopen after patching.

Area of loose or hollow plaster

Tap-testing shows how much plaster has lost its grip.

Moldings and decorative details

Cornices, medallions and arches may need run or cast plaster, which is skilled work separate from flat-wall patching.

Old layers of paint and texture

Old paint and texture may need testing before sanding or cutting, and repainting the whole surface is usually needed once patches are done.

Where in Tiburon the job is

Tiburon's hillside homes fight salt air, marine layer moisture, and steep terrain. Exterior maintenance requires knowledge of marine-grade materials and slope-appropriate anchoring. Tell the pro your neighborhood or ZIP code so they know the age and style of the home.

What is not part of plaster repair & restoration

Knowing where the line is keeps the visit on track and keeps you safe. When a job belongs to a specialist, NorTech tells you before you book.

Any job where labor and materials together reach $1,000 or more. Licensed contractors take that scope, flagged for you before booking.
Testing or removing lead paint or asbestos-containing plaster and texture. Get suspect materials tested before they are disturbed.

Before you book plaster repair & restoration

Quick things that save a trip. Tick them off as you go; none of it is required to book.

0/7

Let’s get you readyTap a card when you have done it.

Photograph cracks and bulges from a few angles

Take wide photos with a flashlight held at a low angle, which shows bulges and ripples. Mark any crack that grows over time.

Tap the wall to find hollow spots

Gently knock around cracks and sagging areas. A hollow sound suggests loose keys behind the plaster.

Do not sand or scrape old paint

Older homes may have lead in the paint and asbestos in the plaster or texture. Leave surfaces alone until they are tested.

Fix leaks before the plaster

Look above the damaged area for plumbing, roof or window leaks. Plaster fixed over a wet wall will stain and crack again.

Note the history of repairs

Share when cracks first appeared, whether they follow seasons, and what has been tried. That helps the pro choose between a patch and a larger repair.

Ask about matching and repainting

Ask how the pro will blend the repair and whether the whole wall or ceiling should be repainted. Paint, not plaster, usually decides how invisible a repair looks.

Say where in Tiburon you are

Add your neighborhood, for example Downtown Tiburon, Belveron, and Paradise Cay, or your ZIP code to your notes. Pros choose the neighborhoods they cover, and it tells them how far they have to travel.

How where you live changes plaster repair & restoration

Add your ZIP in the booking card at the top to see weather alerts and the season for your area.

The way your walls were built decides the repair

Homes here range from pre-war bungalows and Victorians to post-war ranches and newer condos, so the age of a house changes the work more than almost anything else. In Tiburon, typical homes are single-family homes, hillside and waterfront properties, condominiums, townhomes, and multi-unit properties. Neighborhoods such as Downtown Tiburon, Belveron, and Paradise Cay each have their own mix. Plaster built in layers over wood lath, expanded metal lath or masonry fails in different ways. Wood lath relies on keys of plaster between the strips, and when keys snap the wall bulges.

Tell your pro

Fill in the blanks first. The note goes to the pro you choose.
