Landlords, agents and businesses in Butt Lane

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Wood floor repair at your home in Butt Lane

We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. We’re often asked to fix dents from dropped items and chipped board edges, in solid wood, engineered wood and laminate flooring.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills immediately.

Questions from Butt Lane

Is my repair covered?

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

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Do you come to Butt Lane?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Butt Lane and the rest of Staffordshire. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Butt Lane.

Does the room need clearing?

Just around the damaged area.

Which areas do you work in?

All of Staffordshire, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

How do I book?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Honest limits

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:

  • 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 you book.

Materials we work on in Butt Lane

How we price wood floor repair

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • The material
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The colour and finish to match

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • One picture of the entire floor
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Where you are, by postcode

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.

How the visit works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Before we arrive

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Get a quote

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
