For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Wood floor repair in Lancing, done in place

Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. We’re often asked to fix gouges from moving appliances and burns, in engineered wood, laminate flooring and solid wood.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

The process

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.

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

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Lancing. The price reflects:

  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Getting a price from photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • A wider photo showing the entire floor
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Any details about the material
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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.

Common questions in Lancing

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, Lancing included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Can you price it without visiting?

Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

10 questions to ask before you book

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Why us?

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Most jobs done in one visit

When we would advise against a repair

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

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

  • Engineered wood
  • Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
  • Laminate flooring
  • Solid wood
