    I've got a small repair to do to a wall.

    I only need about 20cm square.

    All the sheets seem to be massive.

    Anywhere to get small sheets for patching. Dublin area.

    Any builders providers should gave an "off cut" they would give you? Or woodies do them at 120 x 60 for about 4 or 5 euro.

    Plasterboard is dirt cheap so just buy a 4 x 2 piece.

    Price isn't the issue, it's the large space and mess in the car and house.

    Not to mention the waste.

    4x2 is he smallest.

    That will fit in your boot or back seat.

    It won't creat a mess unless your kack handed.

    Woodies supply the size

    Ask for a bit from builders at any house extension or a dry off cut from a skip .

    As others have said, just walk into a shed of any builders providers, forget the counter. I guarantee the lads in there will have bits lying around. Failing that just bring a stanley knife with you, but 1 sheet of 4x2 and cut your piece off........and leave the rest there for the next guy;)

    Bear in mind the old adage: measure twice, feck it up, measure again, get a bigger tool, make a mess, drink a beer and have a word with yourself, measure a fourth time, do it properly.
