Gap Filler.

[kat-kin]

I've had my home rewired with new extra sockets. My problem is the gaps in the walls where the old sockets were. Anyone know how I can fill them or do I pay a plasterer? TIA.

What are the walls, plaster board, brick etc....?

Brick and concrete Ratter.

Metal back-boxes are usually 25mm deep. Fill out with a 20mm thick piece of board or timber, then finish with good old Polyfilla.

(Stick the board with a dab of polyfilla too.)

Or... just wallpaper over the hole. As in my house.

Thanks TB! I've got polyfiller and some board in the shed. I'll give them a go.
