DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Your questions about wood floor repair in Lavister
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed quote, usually with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Lavister.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

- Laminate swollen along the joints by water

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Repairing versus replacing in Lavister
Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
