Emergency repairs cover a range of urgent situations. Water damage behaves differently to impact holes, and settlement cracks require distinct assessment from sudden ceiling failures – understanding the cause helps ensure appropriate professional response.
Read the breakdown below and decide if we handle your type of emergency. If we do, get in contact and we’ll attend promptly. If we don’t, that’s fine – appreciate you stopping by.
Urgent ceiling and wall repairs after pipe bursts require emergency plastering services that understand water damage behaviour and proper restoration techniques. Saturated plaster continues deteriorating long after visible leaking stops – adhesion weakens, surfaces crack during drying, and hidden moisture causes secondary damage. Experienced tradesmen assess problems thoroughly, remove compromised sections completely, manage drying processes carefully, and restore surfaces to original condition using proven methods.
Impact hole emergency repairs require professional plastering expertise that goes beyond simple filler application. Damaged plaster edges need proper preparation, substrates require sound anchoring, and repair materials must match existing plaster composition to prevent future cracking or adhesion problems. Experienced emergency plasterers assess impact damage accurately, prepare surfaces correctly, and complete invisible patches that withstand normal use without telegraphing through decoration.
Emergency plaster repairs for structural cracks cover damage from building settlement, thermal movement, foundation shifts, or subsidence issues. Skilled plasterers understand crack behaviour – width changes seasonally, patterns indicate cause, location suggests severity. Professional assessment determines whether cracks warrant immediate structural investigation or respond safely to flexible repair systems that accommodate natural building movement without reopening.
Ceiling delamination and failure plastering covers urgent repairs when surfaces separate from substrates, creating visible bulges, sags, or complete detachment threatening collapse. Professional emergency services assess damage extent quickly – testing remaining sections for soundness, identifying failure causes, planning safe removal approaches. Skilled tradesmen work methodically to remove compromised plaster, prepare substrates correctly, and rebuild ceilings using proper techniques that ensure long-term adhesion and structural stability.
Urgent damp damage plaster repairs cover situations where moisture penetration causes immediate surface failure, salt blooming, and rapid mould development across walls. Rising damp, leaking gutters, condensation problems, or building defects create conditions requiring prompt professional intervention before damage spreads. Emergency plasterers evaluate moisture extent accurately, remove affected sections completely, address underlying damp sources, and complete restoration work using salt-neutralising renders and breathable finishing systems.

Local properties are predominantly modern townhouses and victorian cottages, ceilings running 2.4m to 2.8m (7.9ft – 9.2ft). Years plastering these specific building types means knowing their characteristics – how plaster behaves and what each job requires.
Your call or enquiry reaches the plasterer directly – not a sales team or booking system. You speak to the person who’ll actually attend your property, assess what’s needed, and complete the work throughout Addenbrooke’s.
They’ll ask about the work required, your property details, and timeline expectations. Urgent jobs receive prioritised attendance scheduling, while planned work gets convenient assessment appointments for thorough evaluation and detailed cost estimates.

Work gets carried out as arranged – meticulous preparation, expert application, clean site habits. Adjacent areas get protected adequately, and complete tidying happens after finishing. You receive practical information about drying requirements, when decorating can begin, and new plaster maintenance.
The usual suspects when people land here – how does it work, do we cover your patch, and how do you connect. Simple answers below.
Timing depends on situation severity and diary commitments. Serious emergencies – water damage, structural risks – typically receive immediate or next-day response across Addenbrooke’s. Standard urgent work schedules within 2-4 days normally. Direct enquiry confirms accurate availability for your issue.
Call-out charges aren’t included in emergency plastering. Pricing depends on actual work needed – extent of damage, material requirements, labour time. Transparent quotes follow site assessment. No unexpected fees beyond costs explained and confirmed before work begins.
Finish blending is standard for emergency plastering. Skilled work involves assessing existing surfaces, choosing suitable materials, and using techniques that hide patch boundaries completely. Quality repairs integrate invisibly – becoming undetectable after decoration application.
Emergency plastering addresses surface damage – underlying problems typically need other expertise. Plumbing failures require plumbers, persistent damp needs specialists, structural issues demand surveyor assessment. We repair plaster professionally but recommend addressing root causes to prevent recurring damage.
Drying duration varies with repair scope and conditions. Small emergency work typically ready in 1-2 weeks, moderate repairs need 2-3 weeks, larger work requires extended periods. Rushing decoration causes problems – blistering, lifting, mould complications. You receive accurate drying time information based on your specific repair extent.
