Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- The material and finish
- Access to the area
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from pictures
You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Where you are, by postcode
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Most clients in Southerndown get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
About our wood floor repair in Southerndown
Boards are repaired where they lie, matched to the colour and grain. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we’ll be honest about that. If you’re dealing with dents from dropped items and scratches from furniture and pets, we can typically put it right, on engineered wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and laminate flooring alike.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

What else we do in Southerndown
Why repair rather than replace?
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. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Southerndown
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Common problems we fix in Southerndown
Chair legs, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and moving appliances can gouge them.

How the visit works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
- We sand the repair flush with the board.
- We match the colour and grain by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Southerndown questions
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can scratched laminate be fixed?
Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
