Do you cover the entire of West Sussex?

How we price wood floor repair
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

- The colour and finish to match
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures

- One picture of the entire floor

Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We don’t add extras on the day.
