What affects the price in Merry Hill
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Merry Hill. The price comes down to:
- What kind of damage it is
- The material and finish
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Unusual colours or finishes
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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
What happens on the day
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
- We sand the repair flush with the board.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Make sure the area is dry
- Keep a parking space free if you can
How to get a price
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. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Advice
Merry Hill questions
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You will get a fixed quote back, typically with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Do you come to Merry Hill?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Merry Hill from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What we’re called out for in Merry Hill
Chair legs, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and moving appliances can gouge them.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Scratches from furniture and pets
- Chipped board edges
- Gouges from moving appliances
- Burns
What to look for in a quote
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How the colour is matched
- What protection goes down before work starts
- What prep work is covered
When we would advise against a repair
We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
- Engineered wood
- Solid wood
- Laminate flooring
Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
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.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
