We work on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), engineered wood and laminate flooring, and common reasons people contact us are gouges from moving appliances and burns.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Little Ilford and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

What affects the price in Little Ilford

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • How many areas need work
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The colour and finish to match

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Getting a price from photos

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Something in shot to show the size

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

What happens on the day

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Preparing for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How to get a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Little Ilford questions

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

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

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Do you cover the whole of Greater London?

The entire UK, including all of Greater London. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

Does the room need clearing?

Only from the area we are working on.

Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?

Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.
