Your questions about wood floor repair in Thornicombe
Does the room need clearing?
Only from the area we are working on.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What happens after I send pictures?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Are there extra charges for Thornicombe?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Can you price it without visiting?
Usually, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
What happens on the day
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
- We sand the repair flush with the board.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Make sure the area is dry

Advice
Landlords, agents and businesses in Thornicombe
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Thornicombe. The price depends on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
- How many areas need work
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A wider photo showing the whole floor
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The material, if you know it
Most clients in Thornicombe get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
When to call us in Thornicombe
Chair legs, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and moving appliances can gouge them.
Most people contact us after spotting something like this:
- Scratches from furniture and pets
- Burns
- Dents from dropped items
- Chipped board edges
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the price covers travel
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Who will actually do the work
- What aftercare is recommended
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.
Why book with us
- One visit for most repairs
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Fixed prices from your pictures
See our prices page.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Solid wood
- Engineered wood
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
