Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Chesterton as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

What affects the price in Chesterton

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • How many areas need work
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Send pictures for a quote

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Chesterton, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which generally takes a few hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Preparing for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Ask for a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Repair or replace in Chesterton?

Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

  • Nothing taken out or refitted

Chesterton questions

Are there extra charges for Chesterton?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

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.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Cambridgeshire.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

What information do you need?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
