Repairing versus replacing in Beacon End

DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Beacon End use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Honest limits
We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
