What we are called out for in Old Moat
Furniture, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and moving appliances can gouge them.
Look out for any of the following:
- Scratches from furniture and pets
- Dents from dropped items
- Gouges from moving appliances
- Chipped board edges
Questions to ask before you book
- What aftercare is recommended
- How soon you can use it again
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether a trained technician does the job
The process
We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- We fill dents, chips and gouges.
- We sand the repair flush with the board.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
Before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Make sure the area is dry
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Getting a price
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole floor, we can give you a fixed price.
Related advice
When we would advise against a repair
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Engineered wood
- Solid wood
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
- Laminate flooring
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

What affects the price in Old Moat
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Old Moat. The price depends on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What the surface is made of
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Details of any past repairs
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Something in shot to show the size
- One picture of the whole floor
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Old Moat, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
