Common questions in Tynemouth
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?
Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Tynemouth included. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

- Something in shot to show the size

Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
How the visit works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- We fill dents, chips and gouges.
- We sand the repair flush with the board.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
