I have been doing DIY ever since i can remember. I am a bit of a perfectionist and have special eye for detail. Quite happy to put my hands up if i can't get something to done but thats very unlikely, but pay good attention to the structural aspect, practicality and safety for end user.

Frequently asked questions about Wall Repair in Edinburgh

To repair a small hole in drywall, first clean the area around the hole, then apply a small amount of plaster and smooth it out with a putty knife. For larger holes, you may need a plasterboard patch or mesh tape. Once the repair is dry, you can sand the area and paint it over to match the rest of the wall.

It depends on the size of the job. A small hole can take under an hour, while larger damage can take hours. It also depends on the type of incident that caused the damage, like if there was a leak causing the damage that can take longer since it will need to be dried out before fixing the plasterboard. Ask your Tasker to get an estimate.

Yes, with the right tools and know-how you can repair drywall (AKA plasterboard) yourself! However, if you're not comfortable tackling this job solo or simply don't want to purchase tools for a one-time repair, book a qualified drywall repair Tasker in Edinburgh instead.

Prices for drywall repair begin at £52 per hour in Edinburgh. Your overall project cost will vary based on the size of the hole in your wall and how many holes are being patched and painted.

What is drywall?

Drywall is a building material used for interior walls and ceilings. It's made out of gypsum, which is naturally fire-resistant, and serves as a way to reduce sound between rooms. Insulating drywall helps to regular temperature inside a home and is designed to withstand everyday wear and tear. However, that doesn't mean damage still can't happen.

How does drywall get damaged?

  • Small dents from impact

  • Removing nail heads, wall anchors, and screws

  • Leaks

  • Pets playing

  • Pests

  • Tile removal

  • HVAC, electrical, or plumbing repairs
