DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- The colour and finish to match
- Access to the area
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Doing more than one item at once
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the whole floor
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

Advice
Questions from Hale
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Do you come to Hale?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Hale. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Hampshire.
Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?
Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole floor and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Should you replace it?
Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
