How we handle wood floor repair in East Lydeard

Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. 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.

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including East Lydeard. The price reflects:

- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
- Doing more than one item at once
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- Where you are, by postcode
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Something in shot to show the size
- A wider photo showing the entire floor
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
