Common questions in Guildford

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Which areas do you work in?

All of Surrey, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

How much does wood floor repair cost in Guildford?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

Honest limits

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

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

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Do you need wood floor repair in Guildford?

Chair legs, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and moving appliances can gouge them.

What your quote should include

  • What prep work is covered

Choosing a repair company

How we price wood floor repair

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many areas need work
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material

Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send pictures for a quote

You can take the pictures on your phone. Make sure they show:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a few hours. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Getting ready for the visit

Advice

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Guildford. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

  • A year’s guarantee on all work

Landlord and trade work in Guildford

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

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.
