Plasterboard Repairs in Canterbury: Expert Restoration for Every Property
From the narrow Georgian terraces near the Cathedral to the post-war semis in Wincheap, plasterboard damage is an inevitable challenge for Canterbury homeowners. Whether it's a hole from a wayward doorknob, water damage from an old roof leak, or the aftermath of moving furniture, damaged plasterboard can quickly turn from a minor issue to a significant eyesore.

Canterbury's diverse properties – from Victorian terraces to modern estates – all share one common challenge: inevitable plasterboard damage. Whether you're in a Westgate period home or a Hales Place new build, impacts, water leaks, and everyday wear can quickly turn a perfect wall into an eyesore.
Common culprits like moving furniture, door handle impacts, and removed picture fixtures create unsightly holes and cracks that spread if not professionally addressed. A small 10cm hole from a misplaced wardrobe can become a structural weakness, compromising your wall's integrity and appearance. Student lets near the University and historic properties around the Cathedral often suffer from rapid, multiple damage points that require expert attention.

From your enquiry to a perfect wall - here's how we work
We check the extent of damage - sometimes what looks small is bigger behind. Honest assessment, no nasty surprises.
Remove damaged board back to the nearest joists or studs. Proper support for the new board is essential.
Cut new plasterboard to size, fix with appropriate screws, then tape all joints with scrim tape.
Apply skim coat over joints and screws, feathering into surrounding area. Sand smooth and leave ready for decoration.
Whatever your wall needs, we've got the solution
From fist-sized holes to larger damage. We cut back to joists, fit new plasterboard, tape, joint and skim for an invisible repair.
Plasterboard that's been soaked loses its strength. We remove affected sections and replace with new board before the damage spreads.
Sagging or damaged ceiling boards cut out and replaced. Properly fixed to joists with the right screws at correct centres.
Damage to stud walls from impacts, removed fixtures, or failed previous repairs. We restore structural integrity and finish.
Smoke and heat damage to plasterboard. We assess what needs replacing versus cleaning and restore fire-rated boards where required.
When old joints crack and tape lifts. We cut out failed sections, re-tape with fibreglass mesh, and skim smooth.

"After a plumbing leak in our Victorian terrace left a massive water stain on my living room wall, The Patch Doctor were absolute lifesavers. They matched the original plasterboard texture perfectly and repaired a section about 1.5m wide in just a few hours. The repair is seamless - you'd never know there was damage. Mark was professional, explained exactly what he was doing, and cleaned up meticulously afterwards. Brilliant local service that saved us from a potentially expensive full wall replacement. Highly recommended for anyone in Canterbury with plasterboard damage."

"My teenage son accidentally punched a hole through our hallway partition wall during an argument. I was dreading the repair cost, but The Patch Doctor made it so straightforward. They came out quickly, assessed the damage, and had the wall looking pristine within two hours. The patch is completely invisible, and they even gave me advice on preventing future damage. Competitive pricing, no mess, and professional workmanship. If you need plasterboard repairs in Canterbury, these are definitely the people to call."
