DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Honest limits
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Engineered wood
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
- Laminate flooring
- Solid wood
Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
What we do, step by step
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
- The repair is levelled to the board.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

What affects the price in Blackfell
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Blackfell. The price depends on:
- The type of damage
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Doing more than one item at once
- The size and number of damaged areas
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Quotes from your photos
You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- A picture taken from further back
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Something in shot to show the size
For a price in Blackfell, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Blackfell: your questions answered
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Do you cover Blackfell?
We do. We send a technician to Blackfell for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
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.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?
Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
