DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
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, a professional repair is worth it.

Common questions in Sydling St Nicholas
What happens after I send pictures?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
What does wood floor repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
How do I book?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
If you manage property in Sydling St Nicholas, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.

Should you replace it?
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
