Get Your Rental Deposit Back
Moved out and the walls look like a dot-to-dot puzzle from all the pictures, shelves, and random things you've had fixed to them over the years. Landlord's checkout is next week and you're worried about deposit deductions.
I'll fill all the holes properly - bracket holes, picture hooks, rawl plug craters, whatever's there. Filled smooth, sanded level, ready for painting. Walls look clean, landlord's happy, deposit back in your account.
💡 Pro tip: Most landlords expect some wall holes and get them filled as part of redecorating between tenants. But leaving obvious craters and unfilled rawl plug holes gives them ammunition to deduct from your deposit. Get them filled properly.

What to Expect
Step 1: Damage Assessment
I'll check what needs filling - small holes from pictures, larger ones from shelves and brackets, any wall damage. Work out what's needed for a good finish.
Step 2: Filling
All holes filled with appropriate filler - quick-dry for small holes, deeper filler for larger ones. Everything gets filled flush.
Step 3: Finishing
Once dry, everything gets sanded smooth and level. Paint-ready finish, or I can prime them if you're painting yourself.

Good to Know
> 🏠 **Rental checkout soon?** Book this a few days before, so filler has time to dry properly. Don't leave it to the last minute - wet filler won't sand smooth and looks terrible. **Whole house needs doing?** If you've been in a rental for years and there are holes everywhere, let me know when booking. I'll quote based on the full extent rather than discovering it on the day. **Painting yourself?** I can just fill and sand, leaving you to paint. Or I can prime the repairs so they're ready for your paint color. Whatever you prefer.
Frequently Asked Questions about Wall repair after removal in Dawlish
Will the repairs be completely invisible?
For a basic fill that's paint-ready, yes - smooth and level. If you want them absolutely invisible on existing painted walls, I can fill, sand, prime and touch up with matched paint. Most people just need them filled ready for the landlord's decorator to paint over.
How many holes can you fix for the price?
The price covers a typical room's worth - bracket holes, picture hooks, shelving fixings, etc. If you've got a whole house that looks like Swiss cheese, it might take longer, but I'll give you an accurate quote based on what needs doing.
Can you colour-match paint for touch-ups?
If you've got some of the original paint left, yes. If not, I can get close with standard whites and magnolia, but perfect colour matching without the original paint is difficult. Most landlords are fine with filled holes that are paint-ready - they repaint between tenants anyway.
What if I've got big holes from removing built-in furniture?
Proper holes (bigger than fixing holes) need patching with plasterboard and filling. Takes longer but totally doable. I'll quote based on how much patching is needed when I see them.
How long before I can paint over the repairs?
Basic filler needs 24 hours to dry fully. If I've used deeper filler or patched larger holes, give it 48 hours. I'll let you know on the day.
