Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Murton. The price depends on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Something in shot to show the size
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. We don’t add 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.
Why book with us
- One visit for most repairs
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- No extra charge for your area
- Colour mixed on the day to match

Does the room need clearing?
Only from the area we are working on.
Can you quote from photos?

The process
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We clean the damaged area.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- We match the colour and grain by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Most customers in Murton get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
