What affects the price in South Hylton
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- What kind of damage it is
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What the surface is made of
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send photos for a quote
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Landlords, agents and businesses in South Hylton
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It usually takes a few hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- We sand the repair flush with the board.
- We match the colour and grain by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
How to get a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire floor, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

What we can’t put right
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- 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.
What we work on
- Solid wood
- Laminate flooring
- Engineered wood
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
Repairing versus replacing in South Hylton
Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why us?
- Colour-matched on site
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- No extra charge for your area

What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Does the room need clearing?
Just around the damaged area.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.
Common problems we fix in South Hylton
Chair legs, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and moving appliances can gouge them.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Burns
- Dents from dropped items
- Gouges from moving appliances
- Chipped board edges
Questions to ask before booking
- Who turns up on the day
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What preparation is included
- What happens if they find more damage
DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
