Wall repair patches

[gshep]

ive just had an elecrical rewire and need to fill in a number of wall and ceiling holes. im told the "fibatape" (made by saint gobain) wall patches are a good solution but cant find anywhere that sells them?

does anyone know / recommend alternatives?

many thanks

hi on your wall, you need to bond in the chases and skim, on your ceilings you have more of a problem but it can be done, roll up some paper and get it into the hole as tight asyou can making sure that its not proud and prick some bonding onto the paper, let it dry then put more bonding on your patch getting it flush with your ceiling them skim. goog luck

Do it right. Use bonding . Leave it to dry for a day or two then use finish plaster.
