What affects the price in Ley Green

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • How much damage there is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many items we do on one visit

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One picture of the entire floor
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Send us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your SG4 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. The room is left tidy.

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

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Choosing a repair company

Can I fix it myself?

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.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Your questions about wood floor repair in Ley Green

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Do you cover the whole of Hertfordshire?

Everywhere in the UK, Ley Green included. Travel is included in the price.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

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

What happens next?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
