The process

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

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

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Common questions in Letcombe Bassett

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?

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

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.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

When we would advise against a repair

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Laminate swollen along the joints by water
  • Boards that have lifted or warped
  • Underfloor damage

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

What affects the price in Letcombe Bassett

Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Letcombe Bassett. The price comes down to:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Doing more than one item at once

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. 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.

Landlord and trade work in Letcombe Bassett

Letting agents frequently 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.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
