What affects the price in Ellicombe
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many areas need work
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your TA24 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Wood floor repair in Ellicombe, done in place
Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. We are often asked to fix gouges from moving appliances and chipped board edges, across solid wood, engineered wood and laminate flooring.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Advice
Landlord and trade work in Ellicombe
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

When we’d advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Materials we repair
- Laminate flooring
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
- Solid wood
- Engineered wood
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

FAQs for Ellicombe
Do you cover the whole of Somerset?

Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
