Choosing a repair company

Wood floor repair at your home in North Mymms

We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. Whether it’s scratches from furniture and pets and dents from dropped items, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Honest limits

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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 booking.

Materials we repair

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

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 then the old filler has to be removed first.

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.

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. 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. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The type of damage
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether we combine several jobs

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for North Mymms. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

Two or three clear photos are typically enough. Try to include:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One picture of the whole floor
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Something in shot to show the size

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

North Mymms questions

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Can you price it without visiting?

Generally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, North Mymms included. Travel is included in the price.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Hertfordshire.

How it works

The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
