Suggested reads about Plaster Repair

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?

Plasterboard repair + paint colour-match — 3–4 spots, END OF TENANCY

$450

Epping VIC 3076, Australia

26th Jul 2026

Hi, I'm moving out of a rental and need a few interior wall/plasterboard repairs done and painted before handover. Looking for someone who does proper board repair and colour-matching (if possible), not just quick filler — this needs to pass a rental exit inspection. There are 3–4 spots across the property: One is impact damage where the plasterboard has been pushed in/punctured (roughly [football/fist] sized) — likely needs the damaged section cut out and a new board patch set in, taped, sanded and painted. A couple of smaller gouges/holes that need filling, sanding and painting (if possible). One or two edge/corner areas where the surface has lifted. I'll show you all spots on arrival. If possible I would like the finished repairs colour-matched so they blend with the existing paint. Important: ⚠️ This MUST be fully completed (repaired, dried, sanded, painted) by Wednesday 5th August — I hand the keys back Thursday. Please only bid if you can genuinely finish by then, allowing for compound drying time. Please confirm in your offer that you cut and replace board (not just fill). Please bring your own materials and tools; let me know if paint is included in your price or if I need to supply it. Photos attached. Happy to answer questions. Thanks!

Gabriel did a great job matching the paint and going beyond what we needed to fix the property patching before leaving the property. Great job and we'll hire him again.

A previous plasterer did a couple of repairs in the passage way that turned out not very well. I need the existing plaster cut (approx 400x400) new piece put in, bandaged, top coated and sanded to leave me with an invisible join. (As best as possible anyway)

Perfect job, a pleasure to deal with 👍
