Common questions in High Etherley
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Do you cover the entire of County Durham?
We work UK-wide, so High Etherley is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Do I need to move furniture?
Only from the area we’re working on.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
About our wood floor repair in High Etherley
Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will tell you if that is the case. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Our repair technicians work on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), laminate flooring and solid wood, and people most often call us about burns and scratches from furniture and pets.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

Advice
What wood floor repair costs
Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for High Etherley. The price reflects:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Access to the area
- What the surface is made of
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for High Etherley. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A photo taken from further back
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
If you’re in High Etherley and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

What else we do in High Etherley
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Why book with us
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- No need to remove anything
Read our prices page.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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 will not last.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Landlord and trade work in High Etherley
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in High Etherley as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
What we cannot put right
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we work on in High Etherley
