Hi All 

grateful for you advice about what material I should use to repair this whole in the wall. Not sure what the wall is made out of and whether ordinary spakfilla would do it?

thank you!

Re: What to use to patch this hole

Hello @LucyLawless 

 

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community. It's sensational to have you join us, and thanks for sharing your question about patching a hole in your wall.

 

Looking at the photo you posted it appears to be masonry. I suggest using Parfix 500g Ready To Use Multipurpose Filler along with Pro Renovator 50mm Plastic Scraper. The Parfix Filler works on timber, plaster, brick, plasterboard, masonry and stone. Plus, it is weather resistant.

 

Once you've patched the hole make sure to give the filler enough time to dry off before sanding it down. When you've levelled the surface, you can then paint over it.

 

If you need further assistance, please let us know.

 

Eric
