Re: Repair internal corners

Hello @zacblay 

 

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community. It's sensational to have you join us, and thanks for sharing your question about repairing your internal corners.

 

I suggest cleaning the internal corners and removing the badly installed plaster using a Craftright 5-in-1 Scraper. I recommend cutting off the lumpy tape edges with a Craftright 18mm Snap Off Knife. Once the area has been cleaned and prepared you can then apply new plaster to the internal corners. 

 

Here is a handy step-by-step guide: How to set Gyprock Plasterboard Joints 

 

The guide will show you the materials and tools you'll need to fix your plaster board corners. 

 

If you need further assistance, please let us know.
