Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
- Access to the area
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your pictures
You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- A photo taken from further back
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Something in shot to show the size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Honest limits
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped

Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
