Many walls and gypsum cornices start looking bad only a few months after finishing. Cracks appear. Paint becomes uneven. Cornices loosen or develop visible joints. Most people blame the painter or the fundi, yet the real problem often starts underneath the surface.
Low-quality filler ruins the final finish. It affects bonding, sanding, smoothness, and durability. Even expensive paint cannot hide poor skimming or weak surface preparation.
If you want smooth walls, clean cornice installation, and professional interior finishing, the filler you use matters more than most people think.
Why Poor-Quality Filler Causes Problems
Bad filler creates problems from the beginning of the project.
Common issues include:
- Cracking after drying
- Weak bonding on surfaces
- Rough finishes after sanding
- Visible patches and uneven walls
- Cornices loosening over time
Some fillers also shrink after application, leaving gaps and weak joints that affect the final appearance of the room.
This leads to:
- Costly repainting
- Repeat repairs
- Poor interior appearance
- Frustration for both fundis and homeowners
A smooth finish starts with the right preparation materials.
