How to compare quotes

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What affects the price in Gwaelod-y-garth

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Honest limits

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • 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 before booking.

Materials we repair

  • Engineered wood
  • Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
