- Repairs from £95

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A photo taken from further back
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Where you are, by postcode
Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Polesworth, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills immediately.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a board often 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. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Polesworth
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
