Common questions in Farnham Common
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Can scratched laminate be fixed?
Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
How do I get a price for wood floor repair in Farnham Common?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your SL2 postcode.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What affects the price in Farnham Common
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Farnham Common. The price comes down to:
- The material and finish
- How hard the colour is to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How many items we do on one visit
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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One picture of the whole floor
- Where you are, by postcode
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Furniture, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.
