When a repair is not the answer

- Underfloor damage
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Wood floor repair in Little Thorpe, done in place
Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Typical jobs include chipped board edges and burns, on laminate flooring, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and solid wood.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Why book with us
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Colour mixed on the day to match
See our prices page.
For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
How it works
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- The repair is levelled to the board.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
How to get a price
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

What affects the price in Little Thorpe
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- The material
- How many items we do on one visit
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How much damage there is
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Details of any past repairs
- The material, if you know it
- A wider photo showing the whole floor
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
