Plaster Repair
small wall holes, dents and suitable damaged plasterboard patches
Service overview
Repair options for the affected part
Occupied rooms need practical preparation for access and dust control. Explain furniture, fittings and daily room use so the work area can be planned. Do not cut into the wall or remove suspect material just to obtain dimensions for the enquiry.
Small wall damage can be very noticeable in normal room lighting. Fix Nik assesses suitable plaster and plasterboard patches for holes, dents and damaged surfaces, with preparation planned around the existing wall and the finish expected afterwards.
Not every crack belongs to a minor plaster repair. Repeated movement, significant cracking or a sagging surface needs the appropriate assessment before cosmetic treatment. Describe when the damage appeared and whether it has changed, rather than simply asking for it to be covered.
Common repair scenarios
Common plaster repair situations
Previous patch shows through
Explain whether the issue is unevenness, texture or paint sheen. A finishing problem may need a different approach from repairing an open hole.
Minor surface crack
Include its length and any known history. Recurring or widening cracks should be assessed before they are treated as cosmetic defects.
Old fixing holes
List the holes and identify what was removed. Several small patches can be considered together if access and finish expectations are clear.
Impact dent
Shallow dents and broken board need different preparation. Side lighting in a photo can help show the damaged surface without enlarging it.
Small wall hole
Show the hole with a ruler beside it and a wider room view. The surrounding material and any visible backing help explain the repair.

FAQ
Plaster Repair: your questions
Does a photo confirm that surrounding construction is sound?
No. Photos help explain visible condition but cannot confirm concealed support or the extent of hidden damage. Structural movement, significant recurring cracks, sagging ceilings and suspect hazardous materials need appropriate specialist assessment. Where the repair depends on something that cannot be checked remotely, the limitation should be resolved before proceeding.
How long does plaster repair take?
Timing depends on the condition, access and compatible materials rather than the suburb. Agree patching, backing where suitable, drying stages, sanding and any separate painting requirements. Preparation, drying or parts availability can affect the sequence. The practical timing is discussed once enough detail is available to define the job.
Is a wall hole repair included in plaster repair?
Yes, suitable small holes and damaged plasterboard patches are assessed within this service. The condition around the opening and any hidden concerns affect the agreed repair method.
Is repair always preferable to replacing the part?
Keeping suitable material can limit disruption, but only when the remaining support and condition allow it. Agree patching, backing where suitable, drying stages, sanding and any separate painting requirements. If a small repair would leave the cause unresolved, the replacement or specialist options should be discussed first.
Can replacement parts be supplied by the customer?
Discuss the product before purchasing it. Dimensions, fixing positions and compatibility matter, and an apparently similar part may not suit the existing assembly. Review the damaged surface, sound surrounding material and whether the concern is suitable for a minor non-structural patch. Photos and product details can help avoid buying an unsuitable replacement.
Can the patch be painted immediately?
Drying and preparation requirements depend on the repair materials and conditions. Follow the agreed stages rather than applying paint to a surface that is not ready.
Can I request plaster repair in Narre Warren before knowing the cause?
Yes. Describe what you have noticed, when it started and whether it has changed. Review the damaged surface, sound surrounding material and whether the concern is suitable for a minor non-structural patch. Photos support an initial discussion, but a firm repair decision may still depend on seeing the material in person.
