Common questions in Leigh Woods
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?
Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Leigh Woods included. There is no extra charge for travel.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
For landlords and businesses
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
If you manage property in Leigh Woods, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

When a repair isn’t the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Solid wood
- Engineered wood
- Laminate flooring
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
What wood floor repair costs
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- How many areas need work
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
- The material and finish
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Something in shot to show the size
- What it’s made of, if you know
Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your BS8 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. 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 trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
