DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

For landlords and businesses

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Orby: your questions answered

Are there extra charges for Orby?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Can tenants book a repair?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

What a repair can’t 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

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Should you replace it?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

What affects the price in Orby

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material and finish

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Orby. 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 quote

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Where you are, by postcode

If you are in Orby and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
