How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Common questions in Atlantic Wharf

Are you a vetted contractor?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

What happens if you find more damage?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no obligation to book.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Repairing versus replacing in Atlantic Wharf

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

10 questions to ask before booking

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send pictures for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A wider photo showing the entire floor

For a price in Atlantic Wharf, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Atlantic Wharf as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
