Questions from Threlkeld

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

How do I get a price for wood floor repair in Threlkeld?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Do you cover the entire of Cumbria?

Everywhere in the UK, Threlkeld included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

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 is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

What we’re called out for in Threlkeld

Chair legs, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and moving appliances can gouge them.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Dents from dropped items
  • Chipped board edges
  • Scratches from furniture and pets
  • Gouges from moving appliances

What to look for in a quote

  • What preparation is included
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How your room will be protected
  • How to look after the finish

How to compare quotes

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

What you get with us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • No need to remove anything
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Getting a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. 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.

Advice

What affects the price in Threlkeld

Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • The material
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What kind of damage it is

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Getting a price from pictures

Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Threlkeld

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
