Common questions in West Butsfield

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can you quote from pictures?

Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Do you come to West Butsfield?

We do. We send a technician to West Butsfield for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Do I need to move furniture?

Just around the damaged area.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

What wood floor repair costs

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • How many areas need work
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The type of damage
  • What the surface is made of

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Send photos for a quote

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A wider photo showing the entire floor
  • The material, if you know it

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

How to compare quotes

Landlords, agents and businesses in West Butsfield

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

The process

We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.

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

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Open a window if you can

Getting a price

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