Will it eventually fall or just crumble? The holes are odd shaped and are about two inches in diameter. Above it is a leak in the drop ceiling and four of the tiles are missing. The air is coming in but it doesn't rain much where I live. Can this be knocked down completely or does it have to be replastered? What is the cost?|||You used the word plaster...which makes me ask the first question of how old is your house? If it's real plaster, then the answer is not to even play with fixing it. Have a handyman come in and put up new 1/2"-3/4" drywall over the old plaster and just refinish it. Obviously you need to get the source of the leak taken care of, but repairing that plaster will be a mess. It's old, brittle and water damaged. That's not a good situation.
If you've actually got drywall and not plaster, then hire a handyman to come in and cut out that section and just replace/refinish it. Not a hard thing, not terribly expensive, and no one will ever know there was damage.|||genevieve is right on the money
