Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.
When to call us in Child Okeford
Furniture, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Burns
- Dents from dropped items
- Chipped board edges
- Gouges from moving appliances

Your questions about wood floor repair in Child Okeford
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Do you come to Child Okeford?
We do. We send a technician to Child Okeford for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
How the visit works
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It typically takes a morning or an afternoon, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Ensure the room can be ventilated

Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Why us?
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Usually one visit, start to finish
- A fixed quote before you book
