10 questions to ask before you book

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Upper Bucklebury. The price depends on:

  • How much damage there is
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material
  • How easy the damage is to reach

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.

Quotes from your pictures

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses cannot 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.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which generally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Ensure the area is dry

Getting a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Advice

Common questions in Upper Bucklebury

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Do I have to be there?

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

Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?

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

Which areas do you work in?

All of West Berkshire, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

Do I need to move furniture?

Just around the damaged area.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

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

What we cannot put right

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

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

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Should you replace it?

Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why Upper Bucklebury clients choose us

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Colour-matched on site
