When a repair is not the answer
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Engineered wood
- Solid wood
- Laminate flooring
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
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 normally the cheaper route.
When to call us in Nimble Nook
Furniture, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and moving appliances can gouge them.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Scratches from furniture and pets
- Burns
- Chipped board edges
- Gouges from moving appliances
What your quote should include
- How to look after the finish
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- What prep work is covered
- Who turns up on the day
Landlord and trade work in Nimble Nook
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Nimble Nook. What changes the price is:
- How hard the colour is to match
- What kind of damage it is
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Natural light rather than flash
- One picture of the whole floor
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your OL9 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Nimble Nook. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
