Plaster Repair
small wall holes, dents and suitable damaged plasterboard patches
Yuroke property context
Planning the work in Yuroke
For Yuroke enquiries, combine the job details with practical access information. If a tenant or property manager is involved, agree who can provide entry and authorise the quoted work. Agree patching, backing where suitable, drying stages, sanding and any separate painting requirements. Any separate finishing requirement should be raised with the initial photos. A useful Yuroke enquiry identifies the affected room or outdoor area, explains what has changed and includes wide and close photographs. Measurements and access notes help separate urgent repairs from work that can be grouped into a later visit.
Useful details to include
- Wide and close photographs of the item and surrounding area
- Approximate measurements where size affects the scope
- Materials, hardware and existing-condition details
- Tenant, site-access or operating-hour requirements
Service overview
Understanding the plaster repair scope
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.
Matching the surrounding finish can influence how much preparation is needed. Existing texture, paint sheen and lighting may make a small patch visible even when its surface is smooth. Discuss the intended result and any wider paint touch-up before work is scheduled.
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.
Common repair scenarios
Common plaster repair situations
Damage around a door stop
Show the impact point and the door movement. A suitable stop or related fitting repair may help avoid repeating the damage.
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.
Minor surface crack
Include its length and any known history. Recurring or widening cracks should be assessed before they are treated as cosmetic defects.
Impact dent
Shallow dents and broken board need different preparation. Side lighting in a photo can help show the damaged surface without enlarging it.
Marked wall awaiting paint
Identify the surface repairs separately from repainting. Preparation and final coating need an agreed scope and suitable drying stages.

Why Fix Nik
Why choose Fix Nik for this job
Condition-led decisions
Review the damaged surface, sound surrounding material and whether the concern is suitable for a minor non-structural patch. A repair is considered on its merits rather than assumed from the name of the job.
Clear repair boundaries
Structural movement, significant recurring cracks, sagging ceilings and suspect hazardous materials need appropriate specialist assessment.
Practical handover
Allow the specified drying time and discuss primer or paint preparation before applying the final finish. Any limitations or finishing stages should be understood before normal use.
FAQ
Plaster Repair: your questions
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.
What happens if more damage is found?
The agreed scope should be reviewed before extending the work. Structural movement, significant recurring cracks, sagging ceilings and suspect hazardous materials need appropriate specialist assessment. A concealed or more extensive problem may need a separate assessment, so an initial enquiry is not a promise to complete every underlying defect.
When is a different trade needed?
Structural movement, significant recurring cracks, sagging ceilings and suspect hazardous materials need appropriate specialist assessment. Fix Nik first checks whether the request fits the approved minor-work scope. If it does not, the appropriate specialist assessment takes priority over attempting a limited repair that would leave the main problem unresolved.
What photos help with plaster repair?
Send a close view with approximate dimensions and a wider wall view showing nearby fittings, finish and access. Include an overall view as well as close-ups so the relationship between the faulty part and its surroundings is clear. Please do not remove components simply to take a photograph.
What care is needed after the repair?
Allow the specified drying time and discuss primer or paint preparation before applying the final finish. If the original symptom returns, note what has changed and share a photo rather than repeatedly adjusting or covering the affected area. Follow any specific guidance agreed for the materials used.
What should I prepare before the visit?
Clear belongings from the immediate work area and keep access available. Send a close view with approximate dimensions and a wider wall view showing nearby fittings, finish and access. Tell Fix Nik about fragile finishes, restricted entry or anything that must remain in use; dismantling the affected part yourself is not necessary.
What information about a previous repair is useful?
Explain what was changed, roughly when it was done and whether the same fault has returned. Review the damaged surface, sound surrounding material and whether the concern is suitable for a minor non-structural patch. A repeated problem may point to an unresolved cause, and that history helps avoid agreeing another purely cosmetic treatment.
