Wood floor repair in Pottersheath

Landlords, agents and businesses in Pottersheath

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Pottersheath use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

For anyone letting property in or around Pottersheath, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.

Wood floor repair in Pottersheath, done in place

Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will tell you if that is the case. If you are dealing with burns and chipped board edges, we can typically put it right, on engineered wood, solid wood and laminate flooring alike.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills straight away.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

What affects the price in Pottersheath

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Access to the area
  • The material and finish
  • The colour and finish to match

What it costs 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 price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from photos

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A wider photo showing the entire floor
  • The material, if you know it
  • Natural light rather than flash

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

What happens on the day

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Getting a price

Most clients in Pottersheath get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

10 questions to ask before booking

Common questions in Pottersheath

I rent my home. Can I book you?

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

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Which areas do you work in?

All of Hertfordshire, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?

Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
