Should I try a DIY kit first?

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, and the work is guaranteed.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise 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.

How we price wood floor repair

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • Access to the area
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What kind of damage it is

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Tillington. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

There is no need for us to visit first. 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.

Our hiring checklist

Landlord and trade work in Tillington

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.

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

What we do, step by step

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. We match the colour and grain by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Ask for a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Common questions in Tillington

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.

Do you cover Tillington?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Tillington for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
