What affects the price in Palm Bay

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • The type of damage
  • The material and finish
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The colour and finish to match

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking.

Quotes from your photos

Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:

  • Any details about the material
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A photo taken from further back

Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Palm Bay, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Palm Bay

If you manage property in Palm Bay, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

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.

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Common questions in Palm Bay

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Do you work in Palm Bay?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Palm Bay and the rest of Kent. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do I need to move furniture?

Just around the damaged area.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Kent.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.

How do I book?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

What a repair can’t fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Laminate swollen along the joints by water
  • Boards that have lifted or warped
  • Underfloor damage

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

  • Laminate flooring
  • Engineered wood
  • Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
  • Solid wood

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • One price list for the entire UK

See our prices page.
