Landlord and trade work in Draethen
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.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
About our wood floor repair in Draethen
Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will tell you if that is the case. Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. We’re frequently asked to fix gouges from moving appliances and burns, across wood-effect vinyl (ask us), laminate flooring and solid wood.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- The colour and finish to match
- How much damage there is
- The material
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. Try to include:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A photo taken from further back
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Something in shot to show the size
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Should you replace it?
Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
How it works
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
- We sand the repair flush with the board.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know about parking or access
Getting a price
