About our wood floor repair in Trimdon

Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will tell you if that’s the case. If you’re dealing with burns and dents from dropped items, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

Questions from Trimdon

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Do you cover Trimdon?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Trimdon from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Do you cover the whole of County Durham?

All of County Durham, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

What affects the price in Trimdon

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material and finish
  • How many items we do on one visit

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your photos

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A wider photo showing the whole floor
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for 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. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, 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.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
