Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
What happens on the day
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a few hours. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We clean the damaged area.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- The repair is levelled to the board.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the damage
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole floor, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Cumbria and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
What we cannot put right
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Solid wood
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
- Laminate flooring
- Engineered wood
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What the surface is made of
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The colour and finish to match
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from photos
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- The material, if you know it
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Repairing versus replacing in Matterdale End

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
