Questions from Sands End

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Greater London.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire floor and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

About our wood floor repair in Sands End

We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. Our repair technicians work on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), solid wood and laminate flooring, and common reasons people get in touch are dents from dropped items and burns.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

10 questions to ask before booking

How we price wood floor repair

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many areas need work
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

How to get a fixed price

You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • A wider photo showing the entire floor
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any details about the material

Send us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your SW11 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

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

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let us know about parking or access

How to get a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Related advice

What we can’t put right

A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

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

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Should you replace it?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
