Choosing a repair company

Questions from Hickmans Green

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.

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 Hickmans Green?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Hickmans Green for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

How do I get a price for wood floor repair in Hickmans Green?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

What do you need from me?

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

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Hickmans Green, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Repairing versus replacing in Hickmans Green

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.

How we price wood floor repair

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How much damage there is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Doing more than one item at once

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Something in shot to show the size

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

How it works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  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. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Open a window if you can
