How to compare quotes

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Questions from New Sharlston

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Do you work in New Sharlston?

We do. Technicians travel to New Sharlston from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

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

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

What we cannot put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • 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 before you book.

Materials we repair

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

What wood floor repair costs

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • How much damage there is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for New Sharlston. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Details of any past repairs

To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
