Hi, Looking for someone experienced with gyprock / plasterboard repairs to fix a wall opening left after some plumbing work. The hole is roughly 38.5cm x 37.5cm and currently L-shaped. It will need a proper patch so the wall is solid and finished neatly.

I can provide the matching paint if painting is included. Please only quote if you have experience with gyprock wall repairs. A few things to confirm in your offer: • your total price including Airtasker fees • whether your quote includes both labour and materials • whether the job includes patch, taping, compound and final sanding • whether it will be left paint-ready or if painting is included • whether you have public liability insurance • whether you provide any workmanship warranty / guarantee Photos attached. Looking for someone reliable who can do a clean, professional repair. Budget around $200 but open to reasonable offers. Thanks!
