Little Loughrigg questions
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire floor and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Do you come to Little Loughrigg?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Little Loughrigg from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
How do I get a price for wood floor repair in Little Loughrigg?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What a repair can’t fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in Little Loughrigg

Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts 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.
