Landlord and trade work in Grayrigg
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Advice
How we price wood floor repair
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Access to the area
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The size and number of damaged areas
What it costs 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 photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your photos
You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One picture of the entire floor
If you’re in Grayrigg and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
