Whether you're in a Victorian terrace near Dover's historic centre or a modern Whitfield development, plasterboard damage is more than just an eyesore - it's a potential structural risk. Impact marks, water damage, and everyday wear can quickly turn a small issue into a major repair job.
From door handle dents in Maison Dieu properties to water damage from coastal humidity, Dover homes face unique plasterboard challenges. Impacts from moving furniture, kids' play, or accidental bumps can create unsightly holes and cracks that compromise your wall's integrity. Moisture from our maritime climate can seep into damaged areas, causing rot and weakening the entire board.

When damage strikes your walls or ceilings, Dover residents trust The Patch Doctor to deliver a flawless repair that looks like nothing ever happened. Our specialist approach goes far beyond a quick fix - we meticulously restore your plasterboard to ensure structural integrity and a seamless finish.
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.

"The Patch Doctor saved me after a nightmare bathroom leak left a massive water stain and sagging plasterboard. Mike turned up promptly, assessed the damage quickly, and had the whole section replaced within three hours. I was worried about disruption, but he was incredibly neat - you'd never know there'd been any damage. The repair is perfectly smooth, and he even matched the paint colour exactly. Fantastic service, and far cheaper than I expected for such a precise job. Highly recommended for anyone in Dover with plasterboard issues."

"My teenage son managed to punch a massive hole in the living room partition while moving furniture. I wasn't looking forward to an expensive repair, but The Patch Doctor sorted it out brilliantly. They came out same-day, cut a perfect replacement section, and blended it so seamlessly you can't tell there was ever any damage. The price was reasonable, and they were in and out within two hours. No mess, no fuss - exactly the professional service you want. These guys really know their craft."
