For landlords and businesses

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

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

10 questions to ask before you book

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • The material and finish
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The type of damage
  • Doing more than one item at once

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Buckland in the Moor. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any details about the material

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

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

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

How the visit works

You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

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

How to prepare

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Getting a price
