Topic: Cost of RCC ceiling plaster repair due to spalling

Hello sir,
This query comes under repair/renovation.
We reside in the last floor of an old building. The ceiling is spalling in many places and chunks of ceiling plaster are getting loose and falling, and the reinforcement is exposed.
What is the cost of repair of this ceiling plaster? and how?
While renovating does the cost of plaster on brick masonry, vary from plaster on RCC?
Does the cost of breaking plaster on brick vary from breaking plaster on RCC?
Your reply would be most helpful in estimating the budget for rennovation. Thank you.

regards, LM

S L Gupta (Civil Engg) Join date: Mar 2008	Dear LM As described by you the problem of falling of ceiling plaster is a serious matter to be repaired as soon as possible.This problem arise due to salty water use in the construction, fine sand used in roof and dampness in roof.In this problem MS steel used may be rusted now do the repair with the help of skilled mason Remove mortar The mortar should be removed from cracked portion and joint with the help of iron tools at least up to 25 mm depth. All loose material should be cleaned from cracked portion. Wet the surface and apply cement mortar Cracked portion must be kept moist at least for 24 hours before doing repair. Fill in the cracks and joints with cement mortar of coarse sand in 1:4. Do curing and finishing After filling the joints with cement mortar, keep the repaired surface wet at least for 3 days. After drying the surface, finish the repaired area according to the adjoining area. Caution;- DO NOT USE FINE SAND. The cost is more than the regular plastering.Do the work with daily wages not on contract.
