Can I fix it myself?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

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.

Questions from Thorncombe Street

Can scratched laminate be fixed?

Yes. We fill and colour-match scratches and chips.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.

How do I get a price for wood floor repair in Thorncombe Street?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

What wood floor repair costs

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Thorncombe Street. What changes the price is:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work
  • What the surface is made of

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from pictures

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • A wider photo showing the whole floor
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Upload a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your GU5 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Repairing versus replacing in Thorncombe Street

Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
