How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. We recreate 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
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Advice

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Slutshole as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Do you need wood floor repair in Slutshole?

Chair legs, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and moving appliances can gouge them.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Burns
  • Dents from dropped items
  • Gouges from moving appliances
  • Scratches from furniture and pets

Before booking anyone

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Who turns up on the day
  • Aftercare advice

How to compare quotes

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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, it’s worth having it done properly.

Your questions about wood floor repair in Slutshole

Do you cover Slutshole?

We do. We send a technician to Slutshole for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

Do I need to move furniture?

Only from the area we are working on.

Repair or replace in Slutshole?

Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
