Repairing versus replacing in Magherafelt
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What we’re called out for in Magherafelt
Furniture, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.
The things clients normally mention when they call include:
- Gouges from moving appliances
- Chipped board edges
- Burns
- Dents from dropped items
Questions to ask before you book
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Aftercare advice
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
What affects the price in Magherafelt
Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Magherafelt. The price depends on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Any details about the material
- Something in shot to show the size
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
What happens on the day
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.

What else we do in Magherafelt
DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. 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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
