Your questions about wood floor repair in Ashgill
Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?
Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
What we are called out for in Ashgill
Furniture, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Burns
- Chipped board edges
- Dents from dropped items
- Scratches from furniture and pets
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether the price covers travel
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- How your room will be protected
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
