Best ready mixed filler

Updated: 23 October 2026

You are looking at white tubs on amazon.co.uk, and every title says ready mixed. A 4.6 from 15 reviews sits beside a 4.6 from 14,595, and two listings wear one review file. This page names the best ready mixed filler in this set of nine, and the tub that is best value, using the score on the [filler comparison](/hub/fillers-adhesives-and-sprays/filler). Shelf prices are in GBP on 19 October 2026, taken from those listings and the review notes on them. This is not a lab test. A qualifying purchase through our amazon.co.uk links can earn us a commission at no extra cost to you.

What best means in this set

Best here is a score out of 100: amazon evidence 30, listing fit 35, review outcome 20 and value 15. The star rating drops when the count is small or when two ASINs share one review block. The lowest price does not win on a shared file. The Polycell tube scores 86. SikaWall scores 83. A will-not-shrink bullet is a listing claim, not a measured result. A manufacturer sheet does not fill a blank depth.

Top pick for a small ready-mixed repair

The Polycell multi-purpose Polyfilla, 330 g tube, ASIN B000TARAWM, is about £3.49, ready mixed and white. The first 50 texts describe drilled holes, cracks, and a finish that sands and takes paint on those small jobs. The tube is hard to squeeze. The paste skins or hardens inside even with the lid tight, so some people treat an opened tube as a single use. It does not always dry fully white, and one review says you should prime it. The page states no maximum depth. Polycell’s own product page talks about holes up to 10 mm. That figure is the brand page, not a line on this amazon listing. Measure the hole first on the wall filler buying guide.

Best value when you want a 600 g tub

The Sika SikaWall all-purpose filler, 600 g, ASIN B001323YJ8, is about £4.49 and scores 83. It is 4.4 from 5,464 reviews, limited to 9 mm deep and 25 mm wide. That printed limit is why it is best value. A small repair sands if you shape it before it cures. The bullets say interior and exterior, and they tell you to seal an outdoor fix with oil-based paint. The water-resistance field says not water resistant, so a leaking sill is outside it. Left thick, it sets too hard for hand sanding. It sags, and it goes off if the lid is not airtight. Palace fine surface filler at about £1.25 fits a hairline in layers of no more than 3 mm. It shows 4.6 from 2,247, the same star line, model 68-4 and review text as the Langlow listing. One shared file is not two samples, so the value mark stays on SikaWall.

What not to treat as the winner

The Decex kit is 4.6 from 15 reviews at about £13.90, with a Polycell tube, a 3 inch scraper and a 120 grit block, and a line for holes up to 10 mm. Buy it if you lack a scraper. Sika One Strike is a 2.5 litre tub at about £13.20, 4.5 from 937, scoring 72. The listing states no depth, and reviews describe a dry crust over a soft core. If you are past 9 mm, read ready mixed filler or powder.

Common questions

What is the top pick in this set?
The top pick is the Polycell 330 g tube at about £3.49, scored 86 on 19 October 2026. The reason is 4.6 from 14,595 amazon.co.uk reviews on small holes and cracks. The listing states no depth, the tube is stiff, and the paste can harden inside. It is the pick for a small dry repair, not a deep chase.
What is the best value if I only have small cracks?
If the cracks are within 9 mm deep and 25 mm wide, SikaWall at about £4.49 is the best value here. It is 4.4 from 5,464 reviews and it prints that limit. A hairline in 3 mm layers is closer to Palace at about £1.25, which is cheaper and is not scored as best value because its review file is shared.
Why is the £1.25 tub not the best value?
Palace is about £1.25 and shows 4.6 from 2,247. Langlow shows the same stars, the same count, model 68-4 and the same review text. The method counts that file once. Deeper repairs on Palace are layers of no more than 3 mm, so the low price is not a 9 mm fill.
Is One Strike the best filler for deep holes?
No. One Strike at about £13.20 states no depth on the amazon listing. A data sheet describes a deep application, and some reviews describe a soft middle under a dry skin. The score is 72, behind the Polycell tube and SikaWall. Past those printed coats, look at powder.
Who should skip the Polycell tube?
Skip it if you cannot squeeze a stiff tube, if you need the pack to last for months, or if you need a stated depth. Also skip it if the patch must dry white under pale paint without primer, because reviews say it does not always. The 600 g tub is the closer buy when the 9 mm line matters more.
Does a 4.6 from 15 reviews count?
It counts as 15 reviews. The Decex kit is 4.6 from 15 at about £13.90, and six United Kingdom texts are short. That is weaker evidence than 14,595 reviews on the plain Polycell tube at about £3.49. The kit still makes sense if you want the scraper and the block in one box.
Can I trust will not shrink or crack on the tube?
Treat it as the listing’s claim, not a test. The Polycell bullet says the paste will not shrink or crack, and that sentence was not scored as a measurement. Other tubs make a similar claim and still collect shrink reviews. Stay inside the depth on the tub you buy, and fill again if the first layer sinks.
