Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What affects the price in Bishopton
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The type of damage
- The colour and finish to match
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed quote
You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Where you are, by postcode
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
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, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
The process
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
- We sand the repair flush with the board.
- We match the colour and grain by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Related advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
What we can’t 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 will say what we think.
What we work on
- Laminate flooring
- Engineered wood
- Solid wood
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
