Common questions in Goring-by-Sea

Do you cover the entire of West Sussex?

Across the UK, and that includes Goring-by-Sea. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

What happens if you find more damage?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

What does wood floor repair cost?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

About our wood floor repair in Goring-by-Sea

Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. We are often asked to fix scratches from furniture and pets and burns, on laminate flooring, solid wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us).

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

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

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

  • Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Goring-by-Sea

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Goring-by-Sea as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

What affects the price in Goring-by-Sea

Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material and finish
  • The type of damage

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your pictures

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Details of any past repairs

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a damaged 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. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
