Questions from Cefncaeau
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?
Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Wood floor repair in Cefncaeau, done in place
Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. If you are dealing with gouges from moving appliances and dents from dropped items, we can normally put it right.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills right away.

What we’re called out for in Cefncaeau

Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Should you replace it?
Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
