Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Repairing versus replacing in Cross Lanes
Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
What you get with us
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- No extra charge for your area
- No need to remove anything

For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Dorset and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
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.

Advice
What affects the price in Cross Lanes
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- The material and finish
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How many items we do on one visit
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Where you are, by postcode

- The material, if you know it
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole floor, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
