Lath and Plaster Repair
Loose plaster is re-anchored with plaster washers, cracks reinforced and walls skimmed smooth without losing the original surface. See plaster repair.
Kingston Drywall Pros repairs plaster and installs drywall in Newburgh and the hamlets of Stone Mills Township. Our clients here are mostly owners of older village homes, farm properties and owner-built houses.
Newburgh grew up as a 19th-century mill village on the Napanee River, and much of its housing still dates from that era. Plaster, not drywall, is the main wall surface, so our work here is mostly restoration.
The village is about 40 minutes from our Kingston base, and we treat original plaster, trim and mouldings with the care a house that old deserves.
Newburgh is part of Stone Mills Township, so permits come from the township's building department in Centreville rather than from Greater Napanee. Additions and barn conversions generally need one.
Most properties outside the village core run on private wells and septic systems. That affects where plumbing walls go in additions and means we bring our own water for mixing compound on some sites.
Newburgh work is mostly restoration, with five recurring kinds of job.
Loose plaster is re-anchored with plaster washers, cracks reinforced and walls skimmed smooth without losing the original surface. See plaster repair.
Cracked cornices, missing sections and damaged medallions are restored in plaster to the original profile. See plaster crown moulding repair.
New rooms tied into old houses, garages boarded with Type X, and barns and outbuildings turned into heated living or work space.
Many Stone Mills homes are owner-built. We check your hang and take it to a paint-ready finish; see taping and finishing.
Older roofs and hard winters mean stained and sagging plaster ceilings. We stabilise or replace them once the roof is fixed; see ceiling repair.
Booking work in Newburgh? Ask about our next visit.
Newburgh work is booked as full days, often paired with projects around Napanee. A single small patch on its own is hard to justify on the drive, so we will suggest grouping it with other work or our next visit to the area.
Plaster restoration, cornice work and whole-room projects are a perfect fit. We would rather say this openly than promise a quick visit and not deliver.
Along with Newburgh village, we work in Camden East, Yarker, Colebrook, Centreville, Enterprise and Tamworth.
For Napanee and the county seat, see our Greater Napanee page.
Tell us about your home, its age and the work you have in mind. Plaster and cornice work is assessed in person, and we will schedule a visit when we are next in the area.
