Hire Trusted GIB Fixers & Stoppers in Christchurch

From character villas in Merivale to exposed coastal homes in Sumner, Christchurch properties face a unique set of challenges. Cold winters, dry nor’wester winds, coastal salt spray and the impacts of seismic activity can all take a toll on your home’s interior.

That’s where Ezy Peazy comes in. Whether you’re repairing cracks from ground movement, fixing water-damaged walls, or lining a new build, it’s easy to find affordable gib repair services via our user-friendly platform.

No matter the job, Ezy Peazy taskers can help with everything from minor patch-ups to full GIB installation – all while working to your budget and timeline.

Here’s how Ezy Peazy taskers can assist you:

• Custom fitting: Christchurch has its share of uneven walls and unusual ceiling layouts, especially in older homes. Your tasker will take care to measure and cut each GIB sheet for a snug fit.
• Secure fixing: Whether you’re in an older home or a freshly framed build, properly securing GIB with the right fasteners is critical – especially in a quake-prone Christchurch.
• Clean, efficient service: Whether you’re commuting from Rangiora or working from home in Riccarton, your tasker will keep the job tidy and disruption to a minimum.

• Taping joints: proper taping helps prevent cracks from developing, even in homes that experience temperature extremes or minor movement from time to time
  
• Compound layering: applying multiple coats of joint compound to give you a seamless, polished finish
• Sanding and priming: once cured, your tasker will sand and prep the surface so it’s ready for painting or wallpapering​
  

If your GIB has suffered dents, holes or bubbling from water ingress – common in post-quake homes or those with poor ventilation – patching may be all you need.

• Damage assessment: your tasker will determine whether a patch will do the job, or if full replacement is needed
• Surface prep: cleaning and squaring off the area to allow for proper adhesion and blending
• Blended finish: matching the patched area to your existing wall or ceiling texture for a consistent look
  

If your property still has scrim, pinex or aged plasterboard, upgrading to GIB can improve insulation, fire safety and resale value.

• Removing old linings: from cracked plaster to brittle scrim, your tasker will clear it out and prepare the surface
• Installing new GIB: whether it’s a tight stairwell in St Albans or a vaulted ceiling in Tai Tapu, Ezy Peazy taskers can handle awkward spaces with care and accuracy
• Seismic considerations: Christchurch homes benefit from reinforced fixing and compliant finishing — especially when planning for future-proofing or council sign-off
• Optional painting: want the job completed end-to-end? Many Ezy Peazy taskers offer painting services, too
