Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

What affects the price in Downton
Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Downton. What changes the price is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
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 make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One sharp close-up of the damage
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole floor, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
How it works
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- We clean the damaged area.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Ask for a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches 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 how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Downton included. There is no extra charge for travel.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Downton.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
