Hastoe: your questions answered

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

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

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

How quickly can you book me in?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Do you cover Hastoe?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Hastoe. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

How to compare quotes

How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Advice

Repair or replace in Hastoe?

Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Hastoe. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

What affects the price in Hastoe

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many areas need work
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The type of damage

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Quotes from your photos

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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 then the old filler has to be removed first.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
