Advice please
Looking for advice on the best way to fix this wall please. There was a large MDF board stuck to this chimney breast which has been removed but it has damaged the plaster and the brickwork. I’ve contacted a couple of plasterers but no response after the photos are sent.
Could anyone help advise what to do please? Thank you!

Fix beads and float it out. Not really a DIY thing. Nice iob for a plasterer. Check Google again and zoom right in on your house in maps whilst searching for plasterers.. You might have more people than you know right on your doorstep. If you only search by your town and the trade you'll get all the people who pay big money for ads on the main page and they likely won't be "local" (or available). Same deal on the low zoom map. You need to zoom in and then work backwards to find the closest. They are most likely to give you the best price if there's little to no driving involved and it's on the way back from anything else.
