Our hiring checklist

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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 normally cheaper.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

What a repair can’t fix

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

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we work on in Rainham

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

How it works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, tidy-up included.

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

Before we arrive

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

FAQs for Rainham

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide, so Rainham is covered. Prices do not change with location.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Are there extra charges for Rainham?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

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

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

What wood floor repair costs

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Rainham. The price comes down to:

  • The type of damage
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How much damage there is

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Send photos for a quote

You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Something in shot to show the size

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

Repair or replace in Rainham?

Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
