Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills immediately.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What a repair cannot fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in Pratt's Bottom
- Laminate flooring
- Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Access to the area
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:
- One picture of the whole floor
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- What it’s made of, if you know
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
