How it works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Questions from Isle of Whithorn

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Do I need to move furniture?

Just around the damaged area.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

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

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
