Ho f*ed up.
Mentre mi muovevo dal mio vecchio appartamento, ho cercato di tirare lentamente un supporto chiave che era fissato su un muro usando un nastro a doppia faccia. L’intero muro si è allontanato.
Come risolvere questo problema? Per favore aiutatemi

Spachtel and white paint 🙂
Not really a Germany problem, but you can find plastering stuff in any Baumarkt. You also need a Spachtel to put it on, and a Kelle to flatten it.
And after it’s dry you need a Pinsel and Wandfarbe.
I am quite handy, for me it would be easy. You will have to buy all those stuff for one-time use. That is annoying.
In case you plan to move out, you can ask your Vermieter if you have to fix it, or how much it costs if (s)he does it.
Looks like the paint and plaster layer came off with the tape. Don’t worry, it’s fixable:
1. Clean the area – remove any loose pieces around the edges with a scraper or a knife.
2. Fill it – use wall filler / spackle (“Spachtelmasse” in German hardware stores like Bauhaus or Obi). Apply it with a putty knife to make the surface even.
3. Let it dry – usually a few hours or overnight, depending on the filler.
4. Sand it smooth – use fine sandpaper (e.g. 120–180 grit) until it’s flush with the wall.
5. Paint over – ideally with the same wall paint as the rest of the wall (“Wandfarbe” or “Dispersionsfarbe” in Germany).
👉 If you don’t know the exact paint color, sometimes landlords expect you to repaint the whole wall in plain white before moving out (“Renovierungsarbeiten beim Auszug”).
It’s a very common issue in German rentals, and landlords usually expect you to patch things like this before handover.
1/ take down all the loose parts.
2/ buy any small box of ready-to-use Füllspachtel, plus a set of Spachtel in any DIY store. That’s 20-30 euros max. Ask the sales person for advice. Plus some sandpaper. And a small bucket of white paint and a brush.
3/ check out some YouTube tutorials online how to apply Füllspachtel and then…-apply. It’s a 5 minutes job for someone with a little experience and and it’s rather easy. Let it dry.
4/ use the sand paper to even the surface
5/ paint.
6/ done.
If you want a really good experience doing it, here’s the key: what everyone said is more or less the same, but before you start with all the steps, you’ll notice a reddish underground surface.
Use 60 or 80 grit sandpaper to remove the existing oil paint layer from that area of the wall.
That was the original problem, it’s why the plaster came off in the first place. After removing it, either apply a proper primer “Grundierung” or wet the surface before applying plaster. This way, the plaster adheres better and won’t come off again. 🙂
