East Aberthaw questions
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?
Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Do I need to move furniture?
Just around the damaged area.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Repair or replace in East Aberthaw?

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

- We start by cleaning the damage.
- Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
- The repair is levelled to the board.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
Preparing for the visit

- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
