What affects the price in Kirk Merrington

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How much damage there is

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

Quotes from your pictures

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • A wider photo showing the whole floor
  • The material, if you know it
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Where you are, by postcode

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’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

How it works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

How to get a price

Should you replace it?

Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

  • Underfloor damage

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

Kirk Merrington questions

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Kirk Merrington.

Do you cover Kirk Merrington?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Kirk Merrington and the rest of County Durham. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

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 fails, we can still put it right.

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
