Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
How the visit works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- We match the colour and grain by hand.
- The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Questions from Ellesborough
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Do I need to move furniture?
Just around the damaged area.
Can scratched laminate be fixed?
Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Do you come to Ellesborough?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Ellesborough from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
What happens after I send pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
What wood floor repair costs
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- How much damage there is
- The colour and finish to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What the surface is made of
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Getting a price from photos
You can take the pictures on your phone. Just make sure we can see:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Details of any past repairs
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A photo taken from further back
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
What a repair can’t fix
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- 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
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
- Solid wood
- Engineered wood
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Can I fix it myself?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
