- Repairs from £95

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Pavenham questions
Do I need to move furniture?
Only from the area we are working on.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Bedford Borough.
What information do you need?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
Common problems we fix in Pavenham
Chair legs, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and moving appliances can gouge them.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Burns
- Scratches from furniture and pets
- Gouges from moving appliances
- Dents from dropped items
Questions to ask before booking
- What prep work is covered
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
When we’d advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

For landlords and businesses
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
For anyone letting property in or around Pavenham, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
The process
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- We fill dents, chips and gouges.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Have a window or extractor fan available

What wood floor repair costs
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Pavenham. The price comes down to:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The colour and finish to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether we combine several jobs
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
