Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Access to the area
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A photo taken from further back
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Lye Green questions
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first.
Do you cover the entire of Buckinghamshire?
Everywhere in the UK, Lye Green included. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?
Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your HP5 postcode.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
The process
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.
Preparing for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Open a window if you can

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
When to call us in Lye Green
Furniture, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and moving appliances can gouge them.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Scratches from furniture and pets
- Chipped board edges
- Dents from dropped items
- Gouges from moving appliances
What to look for in a quote
- Who will actually do the work
- When it can be used again
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Whether they match the colour on site
What a repair cannot fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Engineered wood
- Laminate flooring
- Solid wood
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
For landlords and businesses
If you manage property in Lye Green, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Buckinghamshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
