Dunham on Trent questions
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
What do you need from me?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Do you cover the entire of Nottinghamshire?
We work UK-wide, so Dunham on Trent is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Do I need to move furniture?
Just around the damaged area.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
