Boston Strong Plastering is a Danvers husband-and-wife shop — Bruno and Marcella Silva — that homeowners across the North Shore call when a ceiling or wall needs real plaster and drywall work, not just a patch. Across 21 Google reviews, all but one are five stars, and the same detail comes up again and again: Bruno personally responds to quotes fast, sometimes within an hour of a first message. The specifics go beyond generic praise. In an October 2025 review, a homeowner described a tricky water-damaged area near a skylight and a shower that needed both drywall repair and matching paint work. A June 2024 review recounts Bruno's crew repairing a damaged ceiling and painting three bedrooms after the homeowner had already dealt with a string of other contractors on the same renovation. A September 2023 review describes finishing walls, corners, and a ceiling section that had been hidden behind kitchen cabinets, working past what was originally specified to leave a mirror-smooth veneer-plaster finish. Several customers are repeat clients — an August 2025 review notes it was their second project with Bruno, and another from June 2024 says the reviewer uses Boston Strong exclusively for plastering work. The one dissenting note, a July 2024 review, was still mostly positive at four stars: the reviewer was happy with the two-bedroom plaster job, the timeliness, and the daily cleanup, but pointed out the crew didn't haul away the trash the way most contractors do — worth asking about upfront. The company's Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration is active, and it says it has been in business since 2012, doing plastering, drywall, painting, tile, and carpentry work across Danvers, Peabody, Salem, Beverly, Marblehead, Gloucester, Newburyport, and Andover. For a homeowner with a plaster or drywall repair — especially one complicated by water damage or an awkward space — this is a shop with a consistent record of finishing the job; just confirm whether trash removal is included in the quote.
Bruno and his team were great and I highly recommend! Bruno was always quick to respond, gave a good price and did fantastic work. Will definitely work with them in the future
Did an amazing job - fast, responsive, fair price, and the work looks great. Never thought I would be excited to get more plastering work done in the future.
Bruno and his team were fantastic. We had a fairly difficult area near a sky light and outside of a shower that both had suffered some water damage. While I was able resolve the source of the water problem, I really needed some skilled help to repair the damage. They not only fixed the damaged drywall, but also provided meticulous painting to finish a top notch job!!
This was our second project with Bruno. He is a dream to work with. We are thrilled with the way our tiling project came out. He is reasonably priced, fast and does exactly what he says he is going to do. Could not be happier!!
Responsive, quality work, reasonable price.
