How to repair paint removed by tape on bedroom wall?

[Hunter4021]

Hi, I recently had to remove a frame stuck to my nieces wall (double sided tape was used) and in doing so - it did not go as easily as expected.  In doing so - i removed a little more than just the frame - am now looking at options / guidance as how to repair. 

Any recommendations on how to repair this would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Nick

Hi Nick (@Hunter4021),

This is a fairly common problem, so we have a best advice article titled How do you fix plasterboard with damaged paper with details on how to repair it.

Essentially, you will need to tidy up the patches so there is no lifting paint, then skim coat it with plaster, sand, prime and paint.

Have a read through the article and let me know if there is anything you require clarification on. I am more than happy to assist further if required.
