Ingatestone: your questions answered
How do I book?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
How do I get a price for wood floor repair in Ingatestone?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Does the room need clearing?
Only from the area we are working on.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, so Ingatestone is covered. Prices do not change with location.
Wood floor repair in Ingatestone, done in place
We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll be honest about that. Common call-outs are for chipped board edges and gouges from moving appliances, across engineered wood, laminate flooring and solid wood.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Ingatestone and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

Repairing versus replacing in Ingatestone
Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
When a repair is not the answer
We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- 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.
Surfaces we repair
- Solid wood
- Laminate flooring
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
- Engineered wood
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Ingatestone. What changes the price is:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed price
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Common problems we fix in Ingatestone
Chair legs, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and moving appliances can gouge them.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Scratches from furniture and pets
- Burns
- Gouges from moving appliances
- Dents from dropped items
Before you book anyone
- How long it needs to cure
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How the colour is matched
