Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Your questions about wood floor repair in Shotton Colliery
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across County Durham.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Can scratched laminate be fixed?
Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.
For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
