Common questions in Lower Common
What happens after I send photos?

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- The type of damage
- The colour and finish to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from pictures
You can take the pictures on your phone. Just ensure we can see:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A wider photo showing the whole floor
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Where you are, by postcode
Email us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Lower Common, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
