FAQs for Howden
Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?
Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Do you cover the whole of West Lothian?
The entire UK, including all of West Lothian. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper 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, and the work is guaranteed.
