What affects the price in Rabbit's Cross
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
No two jobs are quite the same, 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.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Details of any past repairs
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Rabbit's Cross questions
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
What does wood floor repair cost?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Do I need to move furniture?
Just around the damaged area.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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, it’s worth having it done properly.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
For landlords and businesses
If you manage property in Rabbit's Cross, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Repair or replace in Rabbit's Cross?
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
