Repair the plasterboard 1st part - small damage

 

The plasterboard itself is a resistant material especially if new-concept slabs are taken into consideration (calcium silicate slabs, slabs reinforced with natural wood fibers or glass fibers, slabs reinforced with a core of plaster reinforced with mineral fibers ,. ..).

In any case it could happen to cause small dents or holes in the plate.

Repairing drywall is really very simple and anyone can do it in just a few easy steps.

 

Evaluation of damage and repair in 8 moves:

 

Minimum damage: if the hole we have caused is small it will be sufficient to intervene by applying a net joint cover and proceed with the grouting.

  1. • place a 4x4 covering cloth on the ground to protect the floor from dust and debris.
  2. • with a professional cutter, file the damaged paper and the plaster around the hole.
  3. • put putty inside the hole.
  4. • place the special joint cover net above the hole.
  5. • fill all the affected part with a professional spatula.
  6. • allow the grout to dry and repeat the operation until a perfect shave is obtained.
  7. • sand the area with a manual grinder to make the surface uniform and smooth.
  8. • whiten with special paint for plasterboard and an interior roller.
