The process

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

How to get a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Common questions in Longstone

How quickly can you book me in?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

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

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Can you quote from photos?

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

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We come back with a fixed quote, usually with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.

Do I need to move furniture?

Just around the damaged area.

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

What wood floor repair costs

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many areas need work
  • The type of damage
  • Whether we combine several jobs

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A photo taken from further back
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your EH14 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Repairing versus replacing in Longstone

Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Longstone. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why us?

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • One visit for most repairs
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

When we would advise against a repair

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

  • Engineered wood
  • Solid wood
  • Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)

  • How to look after the finish
  • When it can be used again

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
