- Repairs from £95
- Dents from dropped items
- Gouges from moving appliances
Can I fix it myself?
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, and the work is guaranteed.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
About our wood floor repair in Salvington
We repair damaged boards in place, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. Whether it’s dents from dropped items and burns, we can help, on engineered wood, laminate flooring and solid wood alike.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

What affects the price in Salvington
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material
- The size and number of damaged areas
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed quote
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Details of any past repairs
- Natural light rather than flash
- Something in shot to show the size
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Salvington: your questions answered
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Salvington included. Travel is included in the price.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
When we’d advise against a repair
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

- Laminate flooring

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
