The process

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Open a window if you can

Questions from Tebay

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

What information do you need?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Do you work in Tebay?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Tebay for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Tebay as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Repair or replace in Tebay?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches 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 usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

What you get with us

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • No extra charge for your area
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

Our hiring checklist

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 generally the cheaper route.

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, it’s worth having it done properly.

What affects the price in Tebay

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The type of damage
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed price

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One picture of the whole floor
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Most customers in Tebay get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
