Fornham St Genevieve questions

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Repair or replace in Fornham St Genevieve?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Take a look at our pricing.

How the visit works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It usually takes a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

How to get a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Choosing a repair company

How we price wood floor repair

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • The type of damage
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material and finish
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Send pictures for a quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Any details about the material
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One picture of the entire floor

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • Laminate swollen along the joints by water
  • Boards that have lifted or warped
  • Underfloor damage

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

What we work on

  • Solid wood
  • Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
  • Laminate flooring
  • Engineered wood

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
