I have a bad ceiling patch in a home I just purchased. It’s seems to taunt me every time I walk by. It does looks saggy as i think they built it up too much. It is dry and sound per home inspector. It just looks bad. Anyone have any ideas how to blend in a bit especially the edges? Thank you in advance. Approximately 4ft in diameter
I'd bet if you placed a straightedge over it you'd find depressions. Since it's difficult to sand painted excess mud I'd skim it smooth with joint compound and then try to match the texture of the rest of the ceiling.
[color=#383a3b]Hi. Just as the title says - not from water damage. I don't even know who I should call to try to fix it. Handyman, drywaller, or ???? I had a 'handyman' out for this very same issue a few years back. All he did was add some nails to the area - which worked at least until now.[/color]
[color=#383a3b]I am clueless as to even how to ask for help for this.[/color]
[color=#383a3b]Thanks.[/color]

I have a 1952 home with plaster walls and very bad reach-in closets. I am planning to install a closet organizer system which will mount to the closet's back wall, and I am concerned about the plaster carrying the weight of the organizer and clothes. (Since there will be plenty of double hanging, there will be more clothes in there than in the past.) Can I attach drywall to the front of the plaster (and move the baseboard forward)? Or what else will work to reinforce the system?
