Appledore questions
Can you restore the original floors in an older house in Appledore?
In most cases: period pieces can be hard to match if replaced. Send photos and we will advise.
Do you work for schools and businesses in Appledore?
Yes, commercial work is part of what we do. Photos and a few details are enough for a quote.
Can you quote from photos?
Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we tidy up before we leave.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
