Rapid attendance when plaster problems can’t wait. Direct contact with the local emergency specialist serving Itchen – no call centres filtering your request, just prompt professional repairs.
When plaster damage happens unexpectedly, the traditional platform approach creates unnecessary delays. You list the problem, wait for responses, field multiple calls, then coordinate quotes while the damage gets worse. Emergency repairs need faster action than that.
We do things differently.
Itchen has one reliable emergency plasterer assigned. Your call or form reaches them directly – the same person who’ll attend your property and complete expert repairs without competitive quoting delays.
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.
Have a look at the service breakdown below. If it suits what’s happened at your property, get in touch and we’ll sort it. If not, no problem – good luck finding the right help.
Plumbing failures and water ingress cause urgent plaster damage that worsens by the hour – staining spreads, ceilings bow under weight, and structural elements face exposure to persistent moisture. Emergency plaster repairs address immediate visible damage while checking hidden complications like saturated insulation, compromised timber, or electrical risks. Professional tradesmen work fast to dry, prepare, and restore affected surfaces before secondary problems develop.
Accidental damage plastering repairs restore walls and ceilings following furniture impacts, door collisions, shelf removal, or household accidents that create holes, dents, or surface breaks. Emergency plasterers work quickly to assess damage depth, prepare surrounding areas properly, build up repair material in controlled layers, and finish surfaces to match existing textures invisibly. Skilled techniques prevent common patching failures – shrinkage cracks, finish mismatches, or weak adhesion that causes repairs failing months later.
Emergency crack repair plastering addresses sudden fractures from building movement, settlement issues, or structural shifts that compromise wall and ceiling appearance. Professional assessment determines whether cracks result from harmless shrinkage, seasonal movement, or serious foundation problems before repair work begins. Experienced plasterers prepare crack edges properly, apply flexible repair materials that accommodate ongoing movement, and finish surfaces to blend invisibly with surrounding plasterwork.
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.
Emergency plastering for moisture and mould damage addresses urgent needs when damp penetration compromises plaster adhesion, creates surface staining, and establishes fungal colonies throughout properties. Professional services include moisture assessment using detection equipment, safe removal of contaminated material, proper ventilation and drying implementation, and expert restoration using moisture-resistant systems. Skilled emergency plasterers understand damp behaviour, salt migration patterns, and mould growth conditions – completing repairs that prevent recurring problems.

Less critical urgent work schedules within 2-3 days normally. Call for accurate availability regarding your circumstances.
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.
Yes – invisible blending with existing surfaces is expected. Emergency repairs involve texture matching, material compatibility, and finish techniques that hide patch boundaries completely. Skilled work ensures repairs become undetectable once decorated properly.
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 times reflect repair depth and room conditions. Small patches typically ready in 7-14 days, larger work needs 2-4 weeks, major repairs require longer periods. Early decoration risks failures – paint blistering, wallpaper problems, moisture complications. You’ll get clear drying advice based on your specific repair work.
