- The repair is levelled to the board.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.

What affects the price in Gotherington
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Gotherington. The price comes down to:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear photos are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- A photo taken from further back
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

- Something in shot to show the size
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
