Common questions in Tranmere
Do you work in Tranmere?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Tranmere for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Can you quote from photos?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Are there extra charges for Tranmere?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Wood floor repair in Tranmere without replacing anything
Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we will be honest about that. We’re often asked to fix scratches from furniture and pets and gouges from moving appliances, in laminate flooring, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and solid wood.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills right away.

When we’d advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- 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 before you book.

What happens on the day
When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes a few hours. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- We fill dents, chips and gouges.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
Getting ready for the visit

- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Getting a price

Advice
When to call us in Tranmere
Chair legs, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Scratches from furniture and pets
- Chipped board edges
- Dents from dropped items
- Gouges from moving appliances
What to look for in a quote
- When it can be used again
- Who will actually do the work
- If travel is included in the price
- What happens if they find more damage
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
