Questions from Tipner
Do you cover the whole of Portsmouth?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Tipner. Prices do not change with location.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Do I need to move furniture?
Just around the damaged area.

Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
What affects the price in Tipner
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- How much damage there is
- The material
- Access to the area
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send photos for a quote
You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material
- One picture of the whole floor
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
