Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- The material
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The size and number of damaged areas
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Details of any past repairs

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

What else we do in Etherley Grange
For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Repair or replace in Etherley Grange?

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Etherley Grange. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
