The Patch property context
The Patch sits within the existing Greater Melbourne coverage. For wall hole repair, measurements, product information and access details are more useful than assumptions about the suburb's buildings. Check hole size, edge condition, wall material and possible concealed services before confirming a suitable patch repair. For a The Patch quote, describe each task separately and note height, parking, tenant access or preferred appointment windows. This gives the Owner enough context to assess the request without collecting unnecessary personal information.
Planning the work
Patch and prepare an agreed suitable stable wall hole for the next agreed finish stage. Identify any additional items separately so the scope and preparation are understood by everyone arranging the work.
Allow compounds to dry as required and avoid loading the repaired area before its finish is complete. Discuss any final finish or product-specific restrictions before returning the area to ordinary use.
Clear the immediate working area where safe and explain heavy furniture or restricted entry. For rentals or managed properties, agree the appropriate permission and identify the person who can provide access.
Unexpected conditions can alter the available options. Any additional work, different components or separate specialist requirement should be discussed before extending the agreed task, rather than treated as automatically included.
