Repair Drill Holes on Walls |
I 've never patched up or repaired a drill hole, until last week. I've drilled holes for screws before in our house in Manila, but I never got the chance to fix them. Never needed to actually. Well, this time as expatriates in Switzerland nearing repatriation, it's different. Since we're leaving the apartment in a month's time, our relocation partner advised us to repair the holes. If we didn't repair it, the insurance for the house might not pay for the repair due to intent to damage, also if we attempted to repair it but didn't do it well (e.g. smudges, high contrasting color of plaster against wall), still the insurance won't cover it or at the least shoulder part of the repair cost. But if we did it well, the owner won't charge it at all. "Repair it neatly" said our relocation partner. "Ok" I said, but in my mind "How...".
Fortunately, the same relocation partner sent a representative of a cleaning company to do an inspection of our house. They (cleaning company) were not hired to repair drill holes on walls though, the task was mine. I just took a chance and asked the Swiss local how. Below is how he described the process in just four easy steps.
