What moves the price on a touch up
- 1Number of spotsA single scuff is a ten-minute stop. Twenty spots across two floors is a half-day, and it's priced accordingly.
- 2Colour matchingIf you have the original paint can, we use it. If not, we match a chip and that takes a bit longer.
- 3Surface conditionA chip on a rough plaster wall blends fast. A chip on a glossy door needs full scuffing and a clear coat.
- 4Height and accessA ceiling spot near a stairwell takes staging. A wall spot at eye level takes a step stool.
- 5Sheen differenceMatching a flat wall is easy. Matching a high-gloss cabinet is harder because the sheen has to align exactly.
- 6Age of the paintPaint fades and changes colour over time. Older walls may need a full corner-to-corner blend.

Why Touch Up Painting in Broadview Homes Is Trickier Than It Looks
Broadview's homes have walls with decades of paint layers — some flat, some sheen, some old oil. Touching up that mix without leaving a visible patch takes a bit of knowledge. Here's what fails when it's done wrong.
- ✕Old colour mismatchPaint fades over time. Matching a chip from a sunny room against a can that's been on the shelf for four years rarely works.
- ✕Sheen flashA flat patch in the middle of a satin wall stands out like a sticker. The sheen has to match or the edge disappears.
- ✕Not feathering the edgeDabbing paint straight on leaves a rim. It needs to be feathered out over six inches to blend invisibly.
- ✕One coat over darkA light touch-up over a dark wall often looks grey. It needs two passes to match the depth.
- ✕Dust and greaseKitchen touch-ups need degreasing first. Paint won't stick to oily walls and it flakes off within weeks.
- ✕Primer missingBare patches need primer first. Paint straight onto filler dries blotchy and flashes.
What Comes With Every Touch Up Painting Job
This is what we do on every Broadview touch-up. None of it is hidden in fine print or added to your bill later.
- ✓Colour matchingWe match from your existing can or a paint chip you give us. Failing that, we take a sample from a hidden spot.
- ✓Surface cleaningScuffs and marks get cleaned before paint goes on, so the colour sticks properly.
- ✓Filling and sandingNail holes and chips get filled, sanded flat and dusted clean before any colour.
- ✓Feather-blended edgesWe extend the repair out past the damage so the edge disappears into the existing wall.
- ✓Two passes where neededIf the first pass doesn't fully cover, we apply a second thin coat to match the depth.
- ✓Sheen matchingWe match the existing sheen exactly, so there's no shiny spot on a flat wall.
- ✓Cleanup and dust removalSanding dust is vacuumed, not swept. The area looks untouched.
- ✓WalkthroughWe show you the repair before we go and fix anything you're not happy with.
Which Paint Finish Touches Up Best in Which Room
Touch-ups work best when the sheen matches exactly. Here's what we use where, and how it affects the repair.
| Finish | Where it's used | How it touches up |
|---|---|---|
| Flat / matte | Ceilings, old plaster, low-traffic bedrooms | Easy to touch up, blends well, hides surface flaws |
| Eggshell | Living rooms, dining rooms, most walls | Moderate to touch up, needs feathering to avoid sheen flash |
| Satin | Kitchens, hallways, kids' rooms | Harder to touch up, sheen flash is obvious if not blended wide |
| Semi-gloss | Trim, doors, bathrooms | Hardest to touch up, needs primer and precise sheen match |
| High-gloss | Feature doors, cabinets, railings | Nearly impossible to hide. Usually needs full panel repaint. |
Not sure what finish is on your wall? That's part of the free estimate, and we'll help you match it exactly. See our colour consultation for more.

DIY Touch Up Versus the Job We Do Properly

- ✕ A shiny spot on a flat wall because the sheen doesn't match
- ✕ The patch dries darker or lighter than the wall
- ✕ Dust and grease still on the wall so the paint flakes off
- ✕ Holes filled but not sanded flat so you see the bump
- ✕ It takes five trips to the hardware store and still doesn't look right
