We Don’t Just Fill Holes. We Make Damage Disappear.

Expert plaster and render repairs for South Shropshire homes. From water damage to blown render, we restore your property without the mess.

A damaged wall or ceiling is more than just an eyesore; it is a source of stress. Whether it is a patch of "blown" plaster in a Victorian terrace, a water stain from a bathroom leak, or a chunk of missing render on your garden wall, you want it fixed. But more importantly, you want the repair to be invisible.

At Abode Plastering, we specialise in working in finished, occupied homes. We don't just "slap some filler in." We use structural reinforcement, damp-proofing technologies, and expert blending techniques to ensure the repair doesn't just look good today, but lasts for years.

The "Invisible Repair": Why Experience Matters

Most homeowners (and many general handymen) make a critical mistake with repairs: they focus on filling the hole, but forget about the texture.

• The Texture Problem: If your ceiling has a "stipple" texture from years of painting, putting a glass-smooth patch in the middle will stand out like a beacon.

• The Abode Solution: We advise on the finish. We use "softening" techniques to blend the texture of the new plaster with the old, ensuring that once painted, the join is undetectable.

Our Repair Services

We categorise our repair work into four specific tiers to ensure you get the right solution for your property.

The "Abode Protection Standard"

Repair work is often messy, but your home shouldn't be. Because we specialise in working in lived-in properties, our preparation is rigorous.

• Floor Protection: We don't just use thin plastic. We lay down heavy-duty waterproof tarpaulins followed by absorbent cloth coverings to protect your carpets and flooring.

• Dust Control: We keep the workspace contained and clean up daily.

Crucial Note on Estimates: I cannot quote a repair I cannot see. To give you an accurate price (and avoid the "guessing game"), please use our Online Estimate Form to upload photos of the damage. Think of it as a "Digital Site Visit"—it allows me to assess the access and substrate immediately.
