Pulled out plaster/gypsum wall when I removed baseboards, how to fix?
Hello!
I'm in the process of renovating my apartment and was removing the subfloor boards. When I pulled the trim that was there, the plastered wall/drywall came off, and as you can see in the pictures, there are quite large holes that I believe can't just be filled in. The simplest solution would be to install drywall from floor to ceiling, but the edge between the wall and ceiling is rounded, so that's not an easy solution either.
Now I'm wondering if you know how to do this, do you have any tips on how to fix this? Do you have any recommendations for a mason who could fix this (Skåne)?

Gypsum plaster is a bit easier to handle, and that looks completely fine. It's good to dampen the surface a bit with a spray bottle first.
Keep in mind that plaster/gypsum plaster cannot be sanded, so make sure not to apply too much!

That's exactly what I thought too. I applied a bit too little plaster, and then I will putty over it since you can sand putty. I'm going to check today when it has dried to see if it sticks well or not.useless said:
