How we handle wood floor repair in Pity Me

Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Typical jobs include gouges from moving appliances and scratches from furniture and pets, across solid wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and laminate flooring.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

The colour and finish to match
Access to the area
How many items we do on one visit
What kind of damage it is

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send photos for a quote

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

Details of any past repairs
Your postcode, so we can check dates
Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
A close-up of the damage, in focus

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

FAQs for Pity Me

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do I need to move furniture?

Only from the area we’re working on.

Will the price change on the day?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Can you price it without visiting?

Typically, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

Laminate swollen along the joints by water

Underfloor damage

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
