Filling in drill holes in plastered wall.

[Themattias80]

Hello,

I have a bathroom in the basement. The walls are plastered inside and I need to fill some old drill holes (from hooks and cabinets, etc.) before I paint or possibly tile. Suggestions for a product to fill/patch up the holes with?

Plaster mix? Sealant? Filler? I have no idea what would be best.

Hello,

I have a bathroom on the basement level. The walls are plastered inside, and I need to fill some old drill holes (from hooks and cabinets etc.) before I paint or possibly tile. Suggestions on the product to fill/patch the holes with?

Plaster mortar? Sealant? Filler? I have no idea what suits best.

If you are going to tile, you don't need to do anything. But if you plan to tile, I assume you also will apply a waterproof membrane since it is a bathroom. I would have filled the holes with tile adhesive. If you plan to tile anyway, you will need to get adhesive anyhow.

Something cement-based that doesn't sink. "Filler" like Husfix or plaster mortar.

There will not be waterproofing everywhere, only in the shower area. May only tile up to halfway up the wall.

Okay, tile adhesive works. Thanks

If I want to fill in with some filler, is there a decent one in a tube that doesn't need mixing and hassle?
