Taynuilt: your questions answered

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire floor and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Common problems we fix in Taynuilt

Furniture, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and moving appliances can gouge them.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Gouges from moving appliances
  • Scratches from furniture and pets
  • Chipped board edges
  • Dents from dropped items

Before you book anyone

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How to care for the finish
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

10 questions to ask before you book

Can I fix it myself?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

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.

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Advice

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

If you manage property in Taynuilt, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

What wood floor repair costs

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

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material
  • The colour and finish to match
  • What kind of damage it is

We don’t 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.

Quotes from your photos

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the whole floor
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
