DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Work for landlords and builders
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
What we cannot put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- 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.
Surfaces we repair
- Solid wood
- Engineered wood
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
- Laminate flooring

What affects the price in Kensal Town
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Kensal Town. The price reflects:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many items we do on one visit
- The colour and finish to match
- The type of damage
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
How to get a fixed price
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Should you replace it?
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Kensal Town. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
