Ashby-de-la-Zouch questions
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Do you cover the whole of Leicestershire?
Everywhere in the UK, Ashby-de-la-Zouch included. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
What a repair can’t fix
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Solid wood
- Laminate flooring
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
- Engineered wood
Can I fix it myself?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
