How to repair ceiling after light removal?

[ToW]

Hi,

I had an oyster light removed and downlight installed. It left some minor holes and a larger hole (3 to 4 cm). What would be the best approach to patching this up? It is a plasterboard - quite old.

Thanks

Hi @ToW,

I'd suggest using a Pfeiffer 15cm Plaster Repair Wall Patch with some Gyprock Less Mess Multi-Purpose Joint Compound to cover the patch.

Check out How to Fix a Hole in the Wall for some guidance on the process. 

After reading the article, let me know if you have any additional questions so I can assist further.
