Tostock: your questions answered
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?
Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
What areas do you cover?
The whole UK, including all of Suffolk. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.
DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Tostock use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
When to call us in Tostock
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:
- Scratches from furniture and pets
- Dents from dropped items
- Chipped board edges
- Burns

How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Clear the area around the damage
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Ask for a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Related advice
Should you replace it?
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
