FAQs for South Tottenham

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Does the room need clearing?

Just around the damaged area.

Is a repair better than a new one?

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

What does wood floor repair cost?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

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.

Landlord and trade work in South Tottenham

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in South Tottenham as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Greater London and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

What wood floor repair costs

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material and finish
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

How to get a fixed quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Natural light rather than flash

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow a morning or an afternoon.

  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 recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Getting a price

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
