Ashwater questions

How do I book?

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

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Are you accredited?

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

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Ashwater. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

Common problems we fix in Ashwater

Furniture, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Dents from dropped items
  • Chipped board edges
  • Burns
  • Scratches from furniture and pets

What your quote should include

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How to care for the finish
  • Who will actually do the work
  • How your room will be protected

Our hiring checklist

When a repair is not the answer

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

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

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Landlord and trade work in Ashwater

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

The process

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re 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. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Getting a price

Upload a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Ashwater, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Related advice

What affects the price in Ashwater

Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Ashwater. The price comes down to:

  • The type of damage
  • The material and finish
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • What it’s made of, if you know

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. 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’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
