FAQs for Birkin

How do I get a price for wood floor repair in Birkin?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?

Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.

Is there a guarantee?

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

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Will you leave a mess?

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

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Birkin

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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