How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- The repair is levelled to the board.
- We match the colour and grain by hand.
- The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Ensure the room can be ventilated

East Cambridgeshire questions
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
How quickly can you book me in?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, so East Cambridgeshire is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including East Cambridgeshire. What changes the price is:
- How many areas need work
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What kind of damage it is
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Send photos for a quote
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- Something in shot to show the size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Where you are, by postcode
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
Repairing versus replacing in East Cambridgeshire
Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95.

Comparing quotes
- How long it needs to cure
- How changes to the job are handled
- How the colour is matched
- What preparation is included
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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 will not last.
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.
For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around East Cambridgeshire, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in East Cambridgeshire use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
