DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
How we handle wood floor repair in Hilton
Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. Common call-outs are for burns and dents from dropped items, across solid wood, engineered wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us).
Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

Common questions in Hilton
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do I need to move furniture?
Only from the area we’re working on.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
