Upper Town: your questions answered
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Do you come to Upper Town?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Upper Town. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
What does wood floor repair cost?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
About our wood floor repair in Upper Town
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. Common call-outs are for scratches from furniture and pets and chipped board edges, on laminate flooring, solid wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us).
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

What affects the price in Upper Town
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- The colour and finish to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many items we do on one visit
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Send photos for a quote
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- The material, if you know it
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A picture taken from further back
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.
The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- We sand the repair flush with the board.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.
How to prepare
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know about parking or access
Getting a price
For a price in Upper Town, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Related advice
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, then guarantee it for a year.
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.

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
