Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Long Marton. What changes the price is:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Access to the area
  • The material and finish

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Send pictures for a quote

You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A wider photo showing the whole floor

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole floor, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

How to get a price

Most clients in Long Marton get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
