Landlords, agents and businesses in Over Compton

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Questions from Over Compton

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Do the materials smell?

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

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, usually with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.

What information do you need?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Do I need to move furniture?

Just around the damaged area.

Can I fix it myself?

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.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
