Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Ebford: your questions answered
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. You’re under no obligation.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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, a professional repair is worth it.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Laminate flooring
- Solid wood
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
- Engineered wood

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates

- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Landlord and trade work in Ebford
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
About our accreditations · Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee.
