Filling excessively deep holes

[cornsack]

Have dealt with these many a time.

Just wondering if anyone has any great tips or quick methods to speed things up? Hate building up layers and layers of gear.

Some of these holes are a whole brick course deep.

Walls are solid 9-inch masonry, no damp or nuttin'

Expending foam. Sand. Paint. Done

 

[Builderboi]

Chuck a brick back in with mix

 

[Wayners]

Dot and dab plasterboard. Expanding foam is good to. Both dry/set fast so you can get on with it

 

[cornsack]

Cheers lads.

One of the walls I think I'm gonna dot and dab but a couple of the others not worth it because mouldings and door framing not being changed.

Only problem with foaming I can think of is that tiles are gonna be hung off the walls

 

[roryston]

get a few thermolite blocks cut them into shape then mix some rapid cement and sand up and stick the foookers in.

If I saw you trying to fill out with mix or foam to that depth you'd be asked to leave your only as good as the substrate you go over

First picture expanding foam, other 2 pictures just float them out with bonding mate. Best thing I ever done was buy an expanding foam gun because of all the s**t board work these so called builders (contractors) leave on a job!

@Olican.... Someone wants advice filling holes?.

Be best to dry line that wall
Of all the places to route them pipes ,
Concealed mixers usually set up for 12.5 board & adhesive & tile thickness jobs a good un .

 

[Deleted member 23452]

If you put anything solid (hardwall, bonding, S&C) directly over those pipes it'll crack like fcuk when they expand and contract. Especially where the hot and cold are right next to each other.

I doubt it'll do any good, but you could mention to the plumber that a grenade launcher doesn't count as a power tool.
