What we do, step by step

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, tidy-up included.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Clear the area around the damage

Advice

FAQs for Blackhall Rocks

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Will you leave a mess?

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

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

Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Blackhall Rocks

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

For anyone letting property in or around Blackhall Rocks, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why us?

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Work done at your home or business
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

Read our prices page.

What affects the price in Blackhall Rocks

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material and finish

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Quotes from your photos

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A wider photo showing the entire floor
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

When to call us in Blackhall Rocks

Chair legs, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and moving appliances can gouge them.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Burns
  • Gouges from moving appliances
  • Chipped board edges
  • Dents from dropped items

What your quote should include

  • What prep work is covered
  • How to look after the finish
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

How to compare quotes

What a repair cannot fix

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • 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 booking.
