Holm questions

Do you cover Holm?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Holm for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

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

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

Is my repair covered?

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

How do I book?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?

Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.

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

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

Do I need to be at home?

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

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.

About our wood floor repair in Holm

Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll be honest about that. We work on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), solid wood and engineered wood, and common reasons people contact us are burns and scratches from furniture and pets.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

Honest limits

It helps to know what we can’t do:

  • 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.

Materials we repair

  • Laminate flooring
  • Solid wood
  • Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
  • Engineered wood

Choosing a repair company

What affects the price in Holm

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • How much damage there is
  • The type of damage
  • The material and finish
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Quotes from your pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole floor, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Work for landlords and builders

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

If you manage property in Holm, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which usually takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
