Our hiring checklist

Wood floor repair in Butcombe without replacing anything

Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Whether it’s gouges from moving appliances and burns, we can help, on solid wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and engineered wood alike.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Bath and North East Somerset. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Send photos for a quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A wider photo showing the entire floor
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Something in shot to show the size

Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your BS40 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

What we cannot put right

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

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

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Butcombe

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

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

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 generally the cheaper route.

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Butcombe questions

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

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

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

What happens if you find more damage?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

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

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Can you price it without visiting?

Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Repairing versus replacing in Butcombe

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
