    Moving out of the gaff soon and need to fix this as best I can lest my deposit get's raided!

    It was hit by a weight bar, I do have a weights set in the spare room.
    Ok, ok it was an accident and I wondering can it be patched up. It's hard to judge the size from the pics, it's less then the size of my palm if you can picture that.

    I seem to remember a product called pollyfilla or something similar, a sort of plaster application.

    All advice greatly appreciated.

    Pics or it didn't happen:D

    Why not advertise over on adverts, there's a section for services requires, someone may come back with a good price, it looks pretty easy to sort out if you know what you are doing.

    get yourself some sandable fillers readymixed would be easier. using a proper filling knife start from the middle of the hole and work your way out. dont try to fill the hole fully in the one go build it up over 2 or 3 fills. leave a few hours between fills to leave the previous one dry fully. after the last layer has dried properly get some fine sand paper and sand it smooth before painting. best of luck getting your deposit back normally they will use any excuse to keep your money.
