Middlethorpe: your questions answered
What happens next?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
What information do you need?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Can you price it without visiting?
Generally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
When a repair isn’t the answer
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
- Solid wood
- Laminate flooring
- Engineered wood
What wood floor repair costs
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many areas need work
- The colour and finish to match
- Doing more than one item at once
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Send photos for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Middlethorpe
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Repairing versus replacing in Middlethorpe
Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
How the visit works
We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- The repair is levelled to the board.
- We match the colour and grain by hand.
- The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.
How to prepare
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Have a window or extractor fan available
