How to fix this.....

[slider09]

Hi all,

Removed a tiled splash back at the weekend this was is the end result. Is there anything a DIY’er can use to easily patch this?

Thanks

Are you retiling it or wanting to paint it?

I will be re-tiling, however it’s with smaller tiles so will not cover the entire area.

You'd have to reskim where it'll be visible then. It's the only way to get a neat finish.

Easi fill and sandpaper.

Difficult to get a good finish though.

Easi fill is better for feathering into existing especially for a diy'er

Thanks all. Probably best if I get a pro in to re-skim that wall. It’s only a cloakroom wall about 1000mm x 2400mm. Trouble is would a plasterer want such a small job?

Best ring around a few

Thanks for all the replies.

For such a small job surely worth trying yourself to do it.

No, want it looking right. Got a plasterer in earlier this week to re-skim the whole wall. It’s perfect now.
