DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Common questions in Lobley Hill
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first.
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Do you work in Lobley Hill?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Lobley Hill. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can scratched laminate be fixed?
Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Repairing versus replacing in Lobley Hill
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Lobley Hill. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What wood floor repair costs
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- The type of damage
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Quotes from your pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A photo taken from further back
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Something in shot to show the size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
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 come back to you with a fixed figure.
