DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed 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 normally cheaper.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Loyter's Green

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Essex and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

How we price wood floor repair

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How much damage there is
  • The material
  • Doing more than one item at once

Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Getting a price from pictures

Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Most clients in Loyter's Green get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Older homes around Loyter's Green may have sizes and fittings that new pieces do not match. A repair keeps the original.

Prices start from £95. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why Loyter's Green customers choose us

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

Loyter's Green: your questions answered

I let a flat near Harlow Mill station. Can you help between tenants?

Yes, rental work is a big part of what we do, and a repair between tenants is normally quicker than replacing.

Can you restore the original floors in an older house in Loyter's Green?

Frequently, yes: original pieces are typically worth keeping. Photos let us tell you what we would recommend.

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.

We cover the whole UK, including Loyter's Green and the rest of Essex. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

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

Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.

Will you leave a mess?

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

Does the room need clearing?

Only from the area we are working on.

When to call us in Loyter's Green
