Questions from Whitehill

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.

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

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Do you cover Whitehill?

We do. We send a technician to Whitehill for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire floor and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Wood floor repair in Whitehill, done in place

We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll be honest about that. Typical jobs include gouges from moving appliances and burns, in solid wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and laminate flooring.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in County Durham. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Quotes from your photos

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

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any details about the material
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole floor, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Do you need wood floor repair in Whitehill?

Chair legs, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.

Customers generally contact us about:

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

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • How to care for the finish

Choosing a repair company

When a repair is not the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • Laminate swollen along the joints by water
  • Boards that have lifted or warped
  • Underfloor damage

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we work on in Whitehill

  • Engineered wood
  • Laminate flooring
  • Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
  • Solid wood

How it works

You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
