  • The colour and finish to match
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material and finish
  • How many areas need work

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

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

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

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

What we’re called out for in Gushmere

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

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Burns
  • Chipped board edges
  • Gouges from moving appliances
  • Dents from dropped items

Our hiring checklist

Gushmere questions

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

Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Will you leave a mess?

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

How quickly can you book me in?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed price. There is no obligation to book.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

How do I book?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know about parking or access
