Wall damage can include dents, holes, chipped plaster, or minor impact damage. Repairs usually involve filling the damaged area, sanding the surface smooth, and preparing it ready for painting. The time required depends on the size of the damage and the condition of the surrounding wall.
Send the approximate width and height of each damaged area, or a photo with something for scale. Mention any loose plaster or damaged plasterboard.

Time: around 1 hour
Medium Wall Repairs
Repairing larger damaged areas may require additional filling, sanding, and preparation.
Typical labour cost: £120 — £220

When costs can vary
Repair work may take longer depending on the condition of the wall. Additional time may be required if:
