Hollow Plaster Repair
Tap a wall and hear a dull, drum-like sound? That’s plaster that has lost its grip. Our plasterers find the hollow areas, remove what’s loose, and re-plaster properly, so cracks and flaking don’t come back.
We fix the cause of the problem, not just the surface, so the repair lasts.
Hollow plaster rarely fixes itself and often gets worse. Book an inspection if you notice:
Mapping every hollow area by sound so nothing is missed or over-repaired.
Cutting back to a firm, sound edge before any new material goes on.
Bonding agent and fresh plaster applied in layers for a solid, level result.
Sanding and smoothing so the repair is ready for primer and paint.

We remove loose plaster, re-plaster, and leave a smooth, paint-ready surface.
We check why the plaster failed, such as damp, so the repair doesn’t fail again.
Clean edges, proper bonding, and a level finish on every repair.
If an issue appears within the warranty period, we return and fix it free.
A little preparation helps us find every hollow area and fix it right.
Wherever you are in Dubai, our plasterers can reach you — including:
Hollow plaster is plaster that has separated from the wall behind it. It often sounds dull or drum-like when tapped, and it can crack, bulge, or flake over time.
Common causes include moisture, weak bonding when the plaster was first applied, building movement, and age. We check for the cause so the repair doesn’t fail the same way.
It usually isn’t an immediate danger, but loose plaster can eventually fall away, especially on ceilings and high walls, so it’s best to have it checked and repaired.
Often yes. After tap-testing, we usually cut back only the loose sections and repair those, then blend the finish so the patch disappears once painted.
Small repairs are usually done in one to three days including drying time, while larger areas take longer. We give a realistic timeline after inspecting the wall.
Cost depends on how much plaster is affected and whether damp or other causes need treating. We inspect first and give a clear, fixed quote before starting.
Yes. Every repair comes with a workmanship guarantee, and we return and fix any issue that appears within the warranty period at no extra charge.
