Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Seatoller. The price comes down to:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What the surface is made of
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your photos
You can take the photos on your phone. Ensure they show:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the entire floor
For a price in Seatoller, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
For landlords and businesses
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
When to call us in Seatoller
Furniture, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and moving appliances can gouge them.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Scratches from furniture and pets
- Chipped board edges
- Gouges from moving appliances
- Burns
What your quote should include
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- We match the colour and grain by hand.
- The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
