What happens on the day
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Advice
FAQs for Catchgate
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?
Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Do you cover the entire of County Durham?
All of County Durham, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Does the room need clearing?
Only from the area we’re working on.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

What affects the price in Catchgate
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The colour and finish to match
- The material and finish
- Whether we combine several jobs
Instead of hourly rates, 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.
Quotes from your photos
Phone photos are fine. Make sure they show:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A picture taken from further back
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
