DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Wood floor repair at your home in Sandford
Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. We’re often asked to fix burns and dents from dropped items, across wood-effect vinyl (ask us), solid wood and laminate flooring.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills straight away.

Questions from Sandford
What areas do you cover?
The entire UK, including all of South Lanarkshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
What happens after I send pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Do you come to Sandford?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Sandford. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- A photo taken from further back
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any details about the material
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.
What happens on the day
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- We fill dents, chips and gouges.
- The repair is levelled to the board.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.
Before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
How to get a price
To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
