The process

We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

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

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

What affects the price in Longdown

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

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Access to the area
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why Longdown clients choose us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Work done at your home or business

Questions from Longdown

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do you come to Longdown?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Longdown. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Can you quote from pictures?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Longdown.

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

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your EX6 postcode.

When to call us in Longdown

Chair legs, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and moving appliances can gouge them.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Scratches from furniture and pets
  • Dents from dropped items
  • Gouges from moving appliances
  • Burns

What to look for in a quote

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How long it needs to cure
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether they match the colour on site

Choosing a repair company

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

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

Honest limits

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

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

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