Holes, cracks and damaged walls

Plaster Wall Repairs Sydney

When a section of plasterboard wall is damaged, we cut it out, fit a new piece of board, tape and set the joints, and sand it smooth so it's ready for painting. From a door handle through the wall to a run of cracks along the hallway, it's everyday work for us — and we do it with the same care whether it's one patch or a dozen.

Who can repair a hole in a plasterboard wall in Sydney?

Sydney Plastering Service repairs holes, cracks, dents and damaged sections in plasterboard walls across Sydney. The damaged section of wall is cut out, a new piece of plasterboard is fitted, and the joints are taped, set over several coats and sanded smooth, so the wall is ready for painting and the repair disappears once painted. Small holes can be patched in place. Send photos to 0450 535 200 or through the quote form for a free quote.

What's included

Wall Repairs: what we do

  • Holes from door handles, furniture, accidents and removed fixtures
  • Cracks along joints, corners and above doors and windows
  • Damaged external corners and corner bead
  • Patching around new or moved power points, switches and pipes
  • Holes left by TV brackets, shelving and picture hooks
  • Replacing damaged sections of wall

Clean, low-dust finish: we sand with a vacuum sander connected to a dust extractor, so most of the dust is captured at the source. How our dust-free sanding works

Patching holes properly

A hole is never just filled. We cut it to a clean shape, fit backing behind it, glue and screw a new piece of plasterboard in, then tape and set it, feathering each coat wider than the last. Once the top coat has dried, we come back the next day and sand it smooth with our vacuum sanding machine, so the finished wall is flat when the light hits it.

Cracks above doors and windows

Cracks running from the corners of doors and windows are common in Sydney homes and are usually caused by movement around the opening. We cut out the crack, reinforce it with tape and set it properly. If the cracking looks structural — wide, growing or stepping through brickwork — we'll tell you to have it checked first.

Rental and end-of-lease repairs

Landlords, property managers and tenants call us to fix wall damage before a new tenancy or a final inspection. Send a list and photos of each repair and we'll quote it as one job.

FAQ

Wall Repairs FAQs

All FAQs

Do you repair holes in walls?

Yes. Wall and plasterboard repairs are one of our specialties, from a single door-handle hole to multiple repairs through a property.

Can a hole in a plasterboard wall be repaired in one visit?

Usually not if you want a good finish — the setting compound needs to dry before it can be sanded. We set the repair, then come back the next day to sand it smooth with our vacuum (dust-free) sanding machine.

How our dust-free sanding works

Do you repair cracks above doors?

Yes. We cut out and re-tape these cracks rather than just filling them. If a crack looks structural, we'll recommend getting it checked first.

Can you repair walls before a rental inspection?

Yes. Send photos of each repair and your timeframe, and we'll let you know what we can do.
