How to repair a hole in a wall?
How do I repair a hole in a wall? It is plasterboard, one of my kids has managed to go through the wall with a door handle. It is a rented property and I am worried I will get charged. Do I need to plasterboard and plaster the whole room?
Plasterboard/sound proofing
Hi, looking to maybe add a layer of plaster board to certain areas of my home to block out noise. Im not sure if sound proofing is something that plastering professionals offer or if its just an extra layer of plasterboard needed. Any advice welcome. Thanks in advance.
k rend issues - use it or not?
I'm looking to have my house rendered. I live 1/2 a mile from the sea with a prevailing wind to my gable end. I like the modern look of k-rend or parex or webber but I am really concerned about the discolouration and staining of this stuff that you see EVERYWHERE you go. I am told that a particular paint is needed and should be applied soon after render is applied? What is this paint? By who? Or is there any other render or system that could be recommended? Thanks very much

How can I repair a plasterboard ceiling?
I have a ceiling in one room which has been progressively falling apart. It’s approximately 1.5 metres square in size. What is the best way for me to repair this growing gap in the ceiling? Will there be a need to remove any additional plasterboard in the process or just this section?
Garden wall render
I have a garden wall around a patio built with thermalite block. A small portion is a retaining wall but only about 30 cm deep. What can I use to render the block including below ground surface? The goal is to finish the block with a smooth surface and paint white. Location near Peterborough.
Why is plaster peeling off the ceiling around the screws?
I’ve got swirl patterned ceilings around the house but over the last few months the plaster has started to come off only over the screws that hold the plaster board up (I think its plasterboard underneath?). It has left a few small circular holes dotted around the edges of the ceiling where the screw heads are now visible. Why would this be happening? How can I fix it?
