We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Bitterne Park. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

About our wood floor repair in Bitterne Park
Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. We work on laminate flooring, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and solid wood, and common reasons people contact us are gouges from moving appliances and dents from dropped items.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Bitterne Park and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Common questions in Bitterne Park
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
What areas do you cover?
All of Southampton, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
The process
We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
How to get a price
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
