10 questions to ask before booking

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What you get with us

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Fixed prices from your pictures

Take a look at our pricing.

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

How the visit works

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Getting a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Avon Common questions

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, and that includes Avon Common. Our prices are the same everywhere.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.

Do you cover Avon Common?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Avon Common for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

How do I book?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Does the room need clearing?

Just around the damaged area.

What affects the price in Avon Common

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Avon Common. The price depends on:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Access to the area
  • The material and finish

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

How to get a fixed price

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Natural light rather than flash

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

When we’d advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

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

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we repair

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