FAQs for Barcaldine

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do you cover Barcaldine?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Barcaldine from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Does the room need clearing?

Only from the area we are working on.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole floor and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

How we price wood floor repair

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What the surface is made of
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The type of damage

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to get a fixed quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A wider photo showing the entire floor
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

What happens on the day

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
