Should you replace it?
Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Tolworth. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
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 affects the price in Tolworth
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material and finish
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- A wider photo showing the entire floor
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any details about the material
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the floor, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Common problems we fix in Tolworth
Furniture, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and moving appliances can gouge them.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Scratches from furniture and pets
- Gouges from moving appliances
- Chipped board edges
- Burns
What your quote should include
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How soon you can use it again

Landlords, agents and businesses in Tolworth
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Tolworth use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- We fill dents, chips and gouges.
- We sand the repair flush with the board.
- The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Do I need to move furniture?
Just around the damaged area.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
