Learning how to repair cracks in plaster walls is a relatively simple DIY project. 

How to Fix Cracks in Plaster Walls?

  • To get rid of any dust or debris, use a moist cloth to clean the region surrounding the crack.

  • Use a putty knife or sharp knife to slightly enlarge the crack. The joint compound will have more surface area to stick to as a result.

  • Apply a thin layer of joint compound to the crack using a putty knife. Allow the compound to air dry entirely.

  • After the joint compound dries, use fine-grit sandpaper to gently sand the area to smooth the surface.

  • Remember to smooth out the edges of the joint compound application so that it blends in with the surrounding wall when you apply a second coat. Let the compound air-dry fully.

  • After the joint compound dries, gently sand the region using fine-grit sandpaper to even out the surface.

  • Apply your preferred paint colour to the wall after the joint compound has dried.
