Landlord and trade work in Lympstone

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Lympstone use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Wood floor repair at your home in Lympstone

Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will tell you if that’s the case. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Whether it’s scratches from furniture and pets and burns, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills straight away.

When to call us in Lympstone

Chair legs, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and moving appliances can gouge them.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Scratches from furniture and pets
  • Dents from dropped items
  • Gouges from moving appliances
  • Chipped board edges

Questions to ask before you book

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

How to compare quotes

Should you replace it?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Lympstone. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What you get with us

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

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

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

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

Lympstone questions

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?

Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Do you work in Lympstone?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Lympstone. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Do I need to move furniture?

Only from the area we’re working on.

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Getting a price

Advice

What affects the price in Lympstone

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Lympstone. The price depends on:

  • The material and finish
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How easy the damage is to reach

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
