What affects the price in Murkle
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What the surface is made of
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many areas need work
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Murkle. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Where you are, by postcode
- Something in shot to show the size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Upload pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, with your KW14 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Murkle
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Murkle use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Advice
Murkle questions
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK, so Murkle is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
