It's the work that sits between a full joinery job and simply painting: putting right the timber so the finish looks good. It's for homeowners who are redecorating and find damaged trim, landlords preparing a property between tenants, and anyone who doesn't want to book a separate tradesperson for a few small timber jobs. It's typically needed when skirting or architraves are split or missing sections, when beading is loose, when timber has been knocked or chipped, or when small sections of wood need replacing before painting. Painting over damaged timber just highlights it. Because we handle these small jobs ourselves, the repair is done with the paint finish in mind, and the room is completed without waiting on another trade.

In rental properties, they help a property look cared for and reduce wear between tenancies. ## Why small timber repairs matter when you decorate ### Fresh paint shows up old damage When walls are freshly painted, tired woodwork stands out more than ever. Split skirting boards, damaged architraves, chipped door edges and loose beading are easy to overlook until everything around them looks new. Small joinery repairs before decorating mean the woodwork matches the quality of the rest of the room. ### Filler isn't always the answer Filler works well for small dents and holes, but it isn't a substitute for timber when a section is missing, split or rotten. Filler in these situations tends to crack, shrink or fall out, and the problem returns. Replacing or repairing the timber properly gives a sound base for paint and a finish that lasts. ### Outside timber On the outside of a property, timber fascias, bargeboards and sills are exposed to the weather. Small areas of damage can let water in and cause rot to spread. Repairing these before exterior painting protects the timber and helps the new paint last. On the visit we'll tell you honestly if timber needs more than a small repair. ### One team, one quote Most decorators need to bring in a joiner for these jobs, which can mean waiting and coordinating trades. Because we carry out small joinery works ourselves, the repairs and decorating are priced together and completed by the same team. Every job is quoted individually after a free visit and all completed work is guaranteed. Smaller jobs are paid on completion, while larger jobs use a deposit and agreed payment schedule. ### Common jobs we see on decorating projects The most common small joinery jobs we carry out alongside decorating are replacing short damaged runs of skirting after flooring work, refixing architraves that have come loose, renewing beading around windows and panels, repairing chipped window boards, and making good timber around doors so they paint cleanly. On the outside, small repairs to fascias and trims before painting are common. Dealing with these during the same job keeps the finish consistent and saves you arranging another trade. ### What to expect while your small joinery works is underway Before any small joinery works begins, we agree the scope, the order of work and a realistic timescale with you, so you know which rooms or areas will be affected and when. Floors, furniture and fixtures are protected before work starts, and the work area is kept as tidy as possible throughout, with a clean-up at the end of the job. Our working hours are 8am to 7pm, Monday to Friday. If anything unexpected comes up once surfaces are exposed, such as hidden damage behind old paper or paint, we'll explain it to you before going further, so there are no surprises on the final bill. When the work is finished, we walk through it with you and put right anything you're not happy with. Smaller jobs are paid on completion. Larger jobs are paid according to the deposit and payment schedule agreed at the start. All completed work is guaranteed. ### Why choose A&S Decorators for small joinery works A&S Decorators was set up by Ashley Power around 16 years ago, backed by more than 25 years in the trade.
