DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

Wood floor repair at your home in Pentonville

Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will tell you if that’s the case. We work on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), laminate flooring and engineered wood, and the jobs we see most are burns and dents from dropped items.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills straight away.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

What you get with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Same prices wherever you are

10 questions to ask before you book

The process

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  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

Related advice

Pentonville: your questions answered

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the entire UK, including Pentonville and the rest of Greater London. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.

Do the materials smell?

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

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • The material and finish
  • The type of damage
  • How much damage there is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A wider photo showing the whole floor

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in Pentonville, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

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

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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