There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

When to call us in Fleming Field
Furniture, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Burns
- Dents from dropped items
- Gouges from moving appliances
- Chipped board edges
What your quote should include
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How soon you can use it again
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
Fleming Field questions
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do you cover the whole of County Durham?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Fleming Field. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do you come to Fleming Field?
We do. We send a technician to Fleming Field for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Advice
For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.

- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Access to the area

- The size and number of damaged areas
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
