Repair or replace: which is better?

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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.

When to call us in Carnforth

Furniture, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.

Common reasons people in Carnforth contact us include:

  • Burns
  • Dents from dropped items
  • Gouges from moving appliances
  • Scratches from furniture and pets

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How to care for the finish
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether the price covers travel

Our hiring checklist

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • What the surface is made of
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether we combine several jobs

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send photos for a quote

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Natural light rather than flash

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

What we do, step by step

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which generally takes a few hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  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. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Ask for a price

Advice

Landlord and trade work in Carnforth

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Lancashire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
