10 questions to ask before you book

How the visit works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

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

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Clear the area around the damage

Advice

Landlords, agents and businesses in Shefford

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Shefford: your questions answered

What areas do you cover?

We cover the whole UK, including Shefford and the rest of Central Bedfordshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

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

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Do you come to Shefford?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Shefford and the rest of Central Bedfordshire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Shefford. What changes the price is:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What the surface is made of

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Shefford. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

You can take the photos on your phone. Just make sure we can see:

  • A wider photo showing the whole floor
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

What we can’t put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

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

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
