Horton questions
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Usually, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
What do you need from me?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Do I need to move furniture?
Only from the area we’re working on.

Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

How we price wood floor repair
Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Horton. What changes the price is:
- The material
- The type of damage
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Access to the area
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Send pictures for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Natural light rather than flash
- A photo taken from further back
- Any details about the material
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
When we would advise against a repair
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- 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 booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Solid wood
- Laminate flooring
- Engineered wood
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
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.
