Our hiring checklist

What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a few hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

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

Your questions about wood floor repair in Leicester Forest West

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

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

What happens next?

You’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no obligation to book.

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Leicester Forest West and the rest of Leicestershire. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

For landlords and businesses

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Leicestershire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What you get with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

What affects the price in Leicester Forest West

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
