Repair or replace in Rowthorne?

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

10 questions to ask before booking

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What wood floor repair costs

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your photos

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Landlord and trade work in Rowthorne

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

If you manage property in Rowthorne, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?

Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
