Repairing versus replacing in Highampton

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Getting ready for the visit

What wood floor repair costs

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your pictures

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Highampton: your questions answered

Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?

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

What areas do you cover?

The whole UK, including all of Devon. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

What happens after I send pictures?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Does the room need clearing?

Just around the damaged area.

How much does wood floor repair cost in Highampton?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your EX21 postcode.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.

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

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

When to call us in Highampton

Furniture, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and moving appliances can gouge them.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Scratches from furniture and pets
  • Chipped board edges
  • Burns
  • Gouges from moving appliances

Before you book anyone

  • How soon you can use it again
  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Whether the price covers travel
