New Zealand questions
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Are there extra charges for New Zealand?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can scratched laminate be fixed?
Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote.
Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we work on in New Zealand
- Engineered wood
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
- Solid wood
- Laminate flooring
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, a professional repair is worth it.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many areas need work
- Access to the area
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Getting a price from pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One sharp close-up of the damage
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
Repair or replace in New Zealand?
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Advice
For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in New Zealand use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
