About our wood floor repair in Long Clawson

Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. Our repair technicians work on laminate flooring, engineered wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us), and common reasons people contact us are burns and scratches from furniture and pets.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills right away.

FAQs for Long Clawson

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

How do I get a price for wood floor repair in Long Clawson?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Are you accredited?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

What happens on the day

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

How to prepare

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know about parking or access

How to get a price

To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.

How to compare quotes

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Landlord and trade work in Long Clawson

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Long Clawson use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

What affects the price in Long Clawson

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Long Clawson. The price reflects:

  • The material and finish
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How much damage there is
  • Doing more than one item at once

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Long Clawson. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • What it’s made of, if you know

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
