How it works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire floor, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

What affects the price in Rockcliffe

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Rockcliffe. The price reflects:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The type of damage
  • Access to the area

Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send pictures for a quote

You can take the pictures on your phone. Just make sure we can see:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A picture taken from further back
  • The material, if you know it
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

If you are in Rockcliffe and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why book with us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Fixed prices from your pictures

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.

  • Scratches from furniture and pets

  • Chipped board edges

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

10 questions to ask before you book

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
