What affects the price in Dolphinholme
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- The material
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from photos
You can take the pictures on your phone. Just ensure we can see:
- One picture of the entire floor
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Furniture, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.

Repairing versus replacing in Dolphinholme
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How it works
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We clean the damaged area.
- Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
- We sand the repair flush with the board.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
How to prepare
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
