Repairing versus replacing in Small Way

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Small Way. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why us?

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Colour-matched on site

See our prices page.

What affects the price in Small Way

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • What the surface is made of
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your BA22 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Honest limits

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Laminate swollen along the joints by water
  • Boards that have lifted or warped
  • Underfloor damage

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Materials we work on in Small Way

  • Solid wood
  • Laminate flooring
  • Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
  • Engineered wood

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  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

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Ask for a price

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole floor, we can price the job without visiting.

Common questions in Small Way

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?

Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.

Do I need to move furniture?

Only from the area we’re working on.

What happens after I send photos?

You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You are under no obligation.

Are there extra charges for Small Way?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Landlord and trade work in Small Way

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Somerset and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

What we’re called out for in Small Way

Chair legs, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and moving appliances can gouge them.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Chipped board edges
  • Burns
  • Gouges from moving appliances
  • Dents from dropped items

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • When it can be used again

10 questions to ask before you book

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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, a professional repair is worth it.
