How it works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know about parking or access

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a damaged 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 few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Common questions in Battisford

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

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

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?

Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Do you work in Battisford?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Battisford. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

What wood floor repair costs

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material and finish
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

How to get a fixed quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Honest limits

  • Laminate swollen along the joints by water
