Wood floor repair at your home in West Alvington
Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. If you are dealing with scratches from furniture and pets and burns, we can help, whatever the material.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

West Alvington questions

Only from the area we are working on.
Can landlords book you?

Will the price change on the day?

What happens after I send photos?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

When to call us in West Alvington
Chair legs, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and moving appliances can gouge them.

- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
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.
What affects the price in West Alvington
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- The material and finish
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Access to the area
- Doing more than one item at once
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Send photos for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Where you are, by postcode
- One picture of the entire floor
- Any details about the material
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole floor, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
