Prices and what affects them

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

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Access to the area
  • The type of damage
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Send photos for a quote

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • A wider photo showing the entire floor
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Send us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your WV16 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

About our wood floor repair in The Down

Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. Our technicians work on engineered wood, laminate flooring and solid wood, and the jobs we see most are scratches from furniture and pets and chipped board edges.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in The Down as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes a few hours.

  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. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Ensure the area is dry

What a repair can’t fix

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • Laminate swollen along the joints by water
  • Boards that have lifted or warped
  • Underfloor damage

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

  • Engineered wood
  • Laminate flooring
  • Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
  • Solid wood

Do you need wood floor repair in The Down?

Chair legs, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed:

  • Burns
  • Chipped board edges
  • Gouges from moving appliances
  • Scratches from furniture and pets

Before booking anyone

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What prep work is covered
  • How the room is protected while they work

10 questions to ask before you book

Should you replace it?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why us?

  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • No extra charge for your area
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Common questions in The Down

Does someone need to be in?

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

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. You are under no obligation.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide. Prices don’t change with location.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do you come to The Down?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to The Down and the rest of Shropshire. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
