replaster
Patch the ceiling
To replaster is to apply a fresh layer of plaster to a wall or ceiling, typically after the original has cracked, crumbled, or been damaged: We had to replaster the whole dining room after the leak.
The term extends to any resurfacing with plaster, including repairs to exterior stucco.
