How to compare quotes

Wood floor repair in South Lynn without replacing anything

Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Typical jobs include chipped board edges and dents from dropped items, across solid wood, laminate flooring and engineered wood.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Landlords, agents and businesses in South Lynn

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

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

How it works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, including clearing up.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  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

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice

What affects the price in South Lynn

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Any details about the material
  • Where you are, by postcode

Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your PE30 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Common questions in South Lynn

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Will the price change on the day?

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

Are you accredited?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Do you come to South Lynn?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to South Lynn for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Are there extra charges for South Lynn?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
