DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many areas need work
  • The material and finish
  • How many items we do on one visit

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Ystrad. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Something in shot to show the size

If you are in Ystrad and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Honest limits

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • 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 booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Landlord and trade work in Ystrad

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.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

Your questions about wood floor repair in Ystrad

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do you charge for travel?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

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

Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

What happens after I send photos?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Do you need wood floor repair in Ystrad?

Chair legs, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.

How to compare quotes

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. Allow a few hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
