FAQs for Sewardstonebury

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Can you price it without visiting?

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

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Do I need to move furniture?

Just around the damaged area.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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 often lifts.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

How we price wood floor repair

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

How to get a fixed price

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A wider photo showing the whole floor
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.

What we can’t put right

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

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

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

Surfaces we repair

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

  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  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.
