Repairing versus replacing in Greendykes
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Greendykes. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why us?
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- We leave the room as we found it
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- A year’s guarantee on all work

DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
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, and the work is guaranteed.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many areas need work
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A wider photo showing the entire floor
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
