Advice
How we handle wood floor repair in Faringdon
Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. We regularly repair laminate flooring, engineered wood and solid wood, and people most often call us about gouges from moving appliances and burns.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills right away.

For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Faringdon, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Faringdon. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
