Questions from Snowdown
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Do you come to Snowdown?
We do. We send a technician to Snowdown for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Are there extra charges for Snowdown?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?
Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
