repairing electrical chase holes in honeycomb plasterboard wall
Anonymous user 03/03/2024 - 3.22 PM
Hi. I have chase holes to repair in honeycomb filled plasterboard wall and I would appreciate help with knowing how to adequately fix them so that I can have my new kitchen fitted. I would prefer not to make the holes any bigger to fit back stop panels. Is there a way? Many thanks

don't use any bonding type plaster on chasers its a moisture trap and can potentially cause staining and damp issues in future, the best thing to use is a sand and cement mix then skim over it following day.

I would use thistle bonding coat to fill the holes + channels then skrim tape over the top and plaster hope this helps
