Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

What you get with us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • No extra charge for your area

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to South Merstham. The price depends on:

  • Access to the area
  • The material
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many areas need work

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.

Quotes from your photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • The material, if you know it
  • One picture of the entire floor
  • Details of any past repairs

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

For landlords and businesses

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Surrey and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

The process

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which typically takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

Before we arrive

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

How to get a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
