Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

What a repair cannot fix

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we work on in Old Felixstowe

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

Common questions in Old Felixstowe

I rent my home. Can I book you?

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

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

What information do you need?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Prices and what affects them

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

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What the surface is made of
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What kind of damage it is

We do not add 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

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Everything repaired in place
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

How it works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, including clearing up.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

How to get a price

Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Old Felixstowe, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
