Questions from Hanmer

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

How much does wood floor repair cost in Hanmer?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We come back with a fixed quote, generally with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

How to compare quotes

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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, a professional repair is worth it.

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

What happens on the day

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Hanmer. The price reflects:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How easy the damage is to reach

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Most clients in Hanmer get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hanmer as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Shropshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

What you get with us

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • No need to remove anything
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
