Common Wall Damage in Canterbury? We Fix It All

Common Patch Plastering Jobs in Canterbury

Every Canterbury home tells a story through its walls, and those stories often include unexpected damage. Picture hooks, shelving brackets, electrical work, and even enthusiastic door handle swings can leave unsightly marks and holes in your plasterwork. From the Victorian terraces near Westgate to the Georgian townhouses in the city centre, we see the same issues cropping up time and again.

Canterbury's rich architectural heritage means many properties have complex plastering histories. Older homes - particularly those near the Cathedral or in St Stephen's - often bear the scars of multiple previous repairs, DIY attempts, and decades of wear. Student lets in Wincheap and period properties in Hales Place frequently need professional patch plastering to restore walls to their original pristine condition. These aren't just cosmetic fixes; they're about preserving the character of Canterbury's beautiful buildings.

★★★★★

"The Patch Doctor was brilliant after our renovation chaos. We'd just taken down some old shelves in our Victorian terrace and the walls were a mess of holes and uneven plaster. Mark arrived promptly, assessed the damage, and had everything beautifully smooth in just a couple of hours. He matched the wall texture perfectly - you'd never know there were holes before. Reasonable price, no mess, and a professional finish. Absolutely recommend for anyone needing patch plastering in Canterbury."

Frequently Asked Questions - Canterbury

Everything you need to know about patch plastering in Canterbury

How much does patch plastering cost in Canterbury? +
In Canterbury's diverse property landscape - from Victorian terraces near Westgate to modern estates in Hales Place - our patch plastering starts from just £80. Small patches in period properties or new builds across CT1, CT2, CT3, and CT4 postcodes typically cost £80, while medium repairs around typical problem areas like chimney breasts or water damage zones run around £150. Larger repairs affecting entire wall sections in older Georgian townhouses or Victorian homes can reach £350. We pride ourselves on transparent, fixed pricing with absolutely no hidden call-out fees. Every quote is free, so whether you've got a small hole from a picture hook in a St Stephen's flat or significant plaster damage in a cathedral-adjacent property, we'll give you a precise, upfront cost. Our pricing reflects the specific repair needed, ensuring Canterbury homeowners get professional, tailored plastering without breaking the bank.
How long does patch plastering take to dry? +
Drying times in Canterbury's varied properties depend on several factors. In typical Victorian terraces or modern Hales Place developments, a small patch might dry within 2-3 days, while larger repairs can take up to a week. Humidity plays a crucial role - our coastal proximity to Whitstable means moisture can slow drying. We recommend waiting at least 3-4 days before painting, though this can vary based on room ventilation and plaster thickness. In older properties around the CT1 and CT2 areas with traditional lime plasters, drying might take slightly longer. We always advise homeowners to ensure good airflow, use a dehumidifier if possible, and avoid direct heat sources that can cause cracking. For precise drying guidance specific to your Canterbury home's unique characteristics, our team can provide tailored advice during the initial assessment.
Can you match my existing wall texture? +
Matching wall textures across Canterbury's architectural diversity is our speciality. Whether you're in a medieval-era property near the Cathedral or a 1960s St Stephen's flat, we can replicate existing plaster finishes. Our techniques cover everything from smooth modern surfaces in new Hales Place developments to traditional Artex in older Victorian terraces within CT1 and CT2 postcodes. We use specialist tools and decades of local experience to ensure seamless repairs that blend perfectly with your original walls. For period properties, we're particularly skilled at matching historic lime plaster textures common in Georgian townhouses. Each repair is meticulously colour-matched and textured to become invisible once painted. We'll assess your specific wall during our free quote and provide a precise method to ensure your patch looks like it was never damaged.
Do you do small jobs like filling picture holes? +
Absolutely! In Canterbury's diverse housing stock - from compact flats in St Stephen's to spacious Georgian homes - we specialise in repairs of all sizes. Those tiny picture hook holes in your CT2 or CT3 postcode home? We'll sort them quickly and professionally. Many customers combine multiple small repairs to maximise value, so if you've got a few nail holes, minor cracks, or small dents, we can tackle them all in one visit. Our minimum charge starts at £80, which covers several small patches across an average Canterbury home. We understand that not every repair requires a major renovation, which is why we're flexible and customer-focused. Whether you're in a modern Hales Place apartment or a period property near the Cathedral, no job is too small for The Patch Doctor.
How quickly can you come to Canterbury? +

We cover all CT postcodes including the city centre, Westgate areas, Wincheap, and nearby towns like Sturry, Chartham, and Bridge.
