Our hiring checklist

Wood floor repair at your home in Gubblecote

Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. We are frequently asked to fix dents from dropped items and scratches from furniture and pets, in laminate flooring, solid wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us).

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

What affects the price in Gubblecote

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • The material and finish
  • The type of damage
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Gubblecote. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The material, if you know it
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One picture of the entire floor

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

Gubblecote: your questions answered

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Do I need to move furniture?

Just around the damaged area.

Do you cover Gubblecote?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Gubblecote for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

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.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why us?

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

Read our prices page.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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 frequently lifts.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

What we cannot put right

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

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

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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