Landlord and trade work in Colyton

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

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

What happens on the day

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes a few hours. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

How to prepare

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Open a window if you can
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

How to get a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire floor, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • What the surface is made of
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Colyton. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Details of any past repairs

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

What we cannot put right

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

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

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

What we work on

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