DIY repairs versus a professional job

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, then guarantee it for a year.

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.

What we are called out for in Holcombe

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

Contact us if you’ve noticed:

  • Scratches from furniture and pets
  • Chipped board edges
  • Dents from dropped items
  • Burns

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Who will actually do the work

Choosing a repair company

Honest limits

We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Laminate swollen along the joints by water
  • Boards that have lifted or warped
  • Underfloor damage

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Holcombe: your questions answered

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do I need to move furniture?

Just around the damaged area.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

How much does wood floor repair cost in Holcombe?

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

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

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

Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Holcombe

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for a morning or an afternoon. 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. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Ask for a price

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How we price wood floor repair

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Holcombe. The price comes down to:

  • The material
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Access to the area
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

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 price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Quotes from your pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The material, if you know it
  • One picture of the whole floor
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole floor, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
