Plaster & Drywall in Somerville, MA

Somerville is one of the densest cities in New England, and its housing tells the story: block after block of Victorian-era homes and iconic triple-deckers around Davis Square, Union Square, Ball Square, and Winter Hill. Almost all of it was built when plaster over wood lath was the standard, which makes this a city where real plaster skill matters.

Those original lath-and-plaster walls and ceilings are beautiful but prone to cracking, bowing, and water stains as the buildings age and get renovated. We do a lot of crack repair, ceiling restoration, and careful patching here, matching the old surfaces so a fix does not stand out. On gut renovations and condo conversions near Assembly Row and the newer Green Line stops, we hang blueboard and finish with veneer for a modern, seamless result.

Somerville is a short hop from Malden, and its triple-deckers and Victorians are exactly the kind of lath-and-plaster homes our crew works on most. We match old plaster carefully and finish new work clean.
