Plaster and drywall both
Many Haddonfield homes mix original plaster and later drywall. Each is prepped and patched differently to blend into the surrounding wall.

Drywall Repair in Haddonfield
In older Haddonfield homes, "drywall repair" often means plaster repair — cracks along seams, failed older patches, and paper damage exposed when wallpaper comes down. Happy Home Painter repairs those surfaces and repaints them as one project so the fix disappears into the wall.
In Haddonfield
What this usually looks like here.
Every home is reviewed on its own, but these are the conditions and goals most common for this work in Haddonfield.
Cracks that keep coming back
Settlement cracks in older homes are assessed before repair — cosmetic repair does not fix movement, and honest expectations matter.
Repaired and repainted together
The repaired wall is primed and repainted, usually the full surface, so the patch is not a different sheen than the wall around it.

Questions homeowners here ask.
For the full breakdown of this service, see the Drywall Repair page.
Do you repair plaster as well as drywall in Haddonfield homes?
Yes. Many older Haddonfield homes have plaster walls, and appropriate plaster cracks, holes, and loose areas can be repaired and repainted as part of the same scope.
Can you repair the wall after we remove old wallpaper?
Yes. Wallpaper removal often exposes torn paper and uneven areas — that wall preparation and repair can be handled together with repainting. See our wallpaper removal service for the full process.
