Holwell questions

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Is the work guaranteed?

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

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first.

Do you cover Holwell?

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

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Will it make a mess?

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

When to call us in Holwell

Furniture, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.

People generally call us when they notice one of these:

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

Before booking anyone

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Aftercare advice
  • When it can be used again

Choosing a repair company

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around Holwell, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Repairing versus replacing in Holwell

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why Holwell customers choose us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

What a repair cannot fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

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

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Ask for a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What wood floor repair costs

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many areas need work
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What the surface is made of

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed quote

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A picture taken from further back

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
