DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
What happens on the day
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- 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.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Clear the area around the damage
Getting a price
