Should you replace it?
Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Wood floor repair in Catlow, done in place
Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will tell you if that’s the case. Common call-outs are for scratches from furniture and pets and dents from dropped items, in engineered wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and solid wood.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Catlow. The price comes down to:
- What the surface is made of
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many items we do on one visit
- The size and number of damaged areas
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Email us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your BB10 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Advice
Common questions in Catlow
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Do you come to Catlow?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Catlow from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Only from the area we’re working on.
What happens after I send photos?
