Foxley questions
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Do I need to move furniture?
Just around the damaged area.
Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?
Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
What wood floor repair costs
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Foxley. The price depends on:
- The material
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
How to get a fixed quote
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any details about the material
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Norfolk and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
