Hi, just a quickie.
I have some lovely large circular holes (c.20cm diameter) in my ceiling, left from a previous owner. I need to patch them. I was planning to make the holes square, patch with plasterboard and tape the joins. Then when the ceiling gets skimmed, job done.
Am I making work, or could I just plug the hole with circular plasterboard patches? I just thought with a square, taping the joins would be easier and give a better finish rather than just sticking in some plaster in the hole.
