Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

How it works
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- We sand the repair flush with the board.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
Before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Make sure the area is dry
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Chestnut Lodge use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The colour and finish to match
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.
Quotes from your photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Details of any past repairs
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- The material, if you know it
- One picture of the whole floor
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
