Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Access to the area
- The colour and finish to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How many items we do on one visit
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.
Getting a price from pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- The material, if you know it
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A photo taken from further back
- One sharp close-up of the damage
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Wood floor repair at your home in Lower Caldecote
Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will tell you if that is the case. Common call-outs are for scratches from furniture and pets and burns, across solid wood, engineered wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us).
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills promptly.

DIY kit or professional repair?
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, a professional repair is worth it.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. A repair leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
