Absolutely amazing, went above and beyond what the job called for. Shame to see him getting sniped so much in the comments, was the only genuine offer as others were trying to lowball/undercut and never came through. Can't recommend highly enough, would definitely use again and will tell everyone I know.

What do plaster repair services include?
Plaster repair services include all the activities necessary to fix damaged plaster on your walls or ceilings. This service can consist of fixing all sorts of damage like holes, gouges, pits or hairline cracks in plaster. Your plaster repair Tasker can inspect the site, assess the damage, prepare the necessary tools and materials, fix the damage, and apply the appropriate finish.
Site assessment
Your plaster repair Tasker does a thorough inspection of the walls and ceilings that need repairs. They can assess the extent and nature of the damage and see if it’s as simple as plaster crack repair or is a more complex job like blown plaster repair or lath and plaster repair. Your Tasker can take the appropriate measurements of the damage, such as the depth and size of cracks, to determine how much material they need and what tools to prepare.
If during the inspection, your Tasker discovers water damage to your plaster, you may want to hire someone to check and fix the pipes before they start.
Site & materials preparation
Your Tasker may cover your floor with a plastic dust sheet or other protective material. Some Taskers may move furniture out of the way. They may also cover any light switches or electrical sockets that are close to the damaged plaster. Should you want new wirings installed, make sure to hire someone to do this first before the plaster repairs.
If necessary, your Tasker may prime the damaged areas - this can include scraping the edges of cracks, then dusting off raised and excess material, then brushing the area with carpenter’s glue to give better surface adhesion for the filler and new plaster. Your Tasker can do this and other appropriate prep work on the damage.
Performing repairs
Once the site is prepared, and the materials are ready, your Tasker can do the repairs. They can use proven techniques and the right tools and materials. This can include plaster repair with a skim application, plaster repair with Polycell, plaster repair with Polyfilla, gypsum plaster repair and any other appropriate repair methods.
Some Taskers can remove and replace broken laths, although you may have to hire a separate service if the damage to the lath is extensive. Following best practices, your Tasker can apply as much filler and new plaster as needed to fill the cracks, gouges or holes in the wall or ceiling plaster. Note that they can allow each layer of filler or plaster to dry in-between applications.
Finishing touches
Your Tasker can smoothen the new plaster once all the layers have dried. They can use sandpaper of the appropriate coarseness or fineness to make the new plaster level with the rest of the wall or ceiling. If necessary, your Tasker can apply finishing oils or primer for fresh paint.
Speaking of which, why not have your walls or ceilings painted in a new or different colour?

I have 3 large holes I need to replaster, and fix a curtain rail fixed to the wall. The first is in the bathroom, a leak caused a large break in the cieling. I've cut around most the damaged area. The second and third are covering air cavities that are no longer required. See attached photos. The last is a few holes caused by replacing curtains. I'd like these holes repaired and the curtain rail hung.

Hello! We have got a hole in the external of our place. It’s not of massive concern as it’s just the plaster on the outside of the double brick. We think there may of been a crack, some water has got in and now it’s come away. We need someone to patch it please and make it look the same as the exterior. We can paint it so that’s not required.
Darren was great! Talked me through the whole process. Thanks so much

Small plaster repair to a wall
$90
Northcote VIC 3070, Australia
3rd Sep 2025
See image. There is a 8cm diameter hole and x2 one centimetre diameter holes in the plaster wall left from removing the exhaust from an old heater. The wall has a timber frame. I have some spare plaster board that can be used to repair the big hole. I can obtain some 'Gyprock ultra top Topping coat if needed. I'd like a good quality finish to the repair so that it's invisible when I paint the wall. I'm not sure on the likely cost so I've offered $90 but we can negotiate this if it's a longer job than I anticipate.
Gabrielle was punctual. polite and friendly. He completed the plaster repair ready for painting. I can recommend Gabrielle for plaster repair jobs.
