What affects the price in Mid Lavant

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How much damage there is

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your pictures

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Wood floor repair in Mid Lavant, done in place

We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll be honest about that. If you are dealing with chipped board edges and dents from dropped items, we can help, on solid wood, engineered wood and laminate flooring alike.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

How to compare quotes

What a repair can’t fix

A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

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

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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, and the work is guaranteed.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Mid Lavant questions

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

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

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
