Cullen questions

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

How soon can you come?

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

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Can you repair several things at once?

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

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.

Repair or replace in Cullen?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Cullen

  • No need to remove anything
  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Common problems we fix in Cullen

Furniture, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and moving appliances can gouge them.

Most people contact us after spotting one of these:

  • Burns
  • Scratches from furniture and pets
  • Gouges from moving appliances
  • Chipped board edges

Questions to ask before booking

  • What preparation is included
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • When it can be used again
  • What aftercare is recommended

Our hiring checklist

The process

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let us know about parking or access
