I had a leak in my roof which has been repaired. Unfortunately it went down to the ceiling below in a small area. I would like to know how to repair that area. It is a white plaster ceiling. :) Thank you, Jeany

i don't know anything about plaster, but if the area is still solid and just stained, you can use a stain blocking paint like kilz to cover the stain and just repaint.

Dear Dick,
Thank you so much for your suggestion. Actually, I was thinking that just today after I vacuumed the crumbled paint away. Jeany
