Common questions in Surlingham
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed quote, generally with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.
Do I need to move furniture?
Just around the damaged area.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Norfolk.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Can scratched laminate be fixed?
Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Do you cover Surlingham?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Surlingham. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Wood floor repair in Surlingham without replacing anything
Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. If you are dealing with burns and chipped board edges, we can help, whatever the material.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe spills right away.

Landlord and trade work in Surlingham
For anyone letting property in or around Surlingham, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What wood floor repair costs
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Surlingham. The price comes down to:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material and finish
- How hard the colour is to match
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
If you’re in Surlingham and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
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. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
