Repairing versus replacing in Vale of Health
Swapping a damaged board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. For a flat in Vale of Health, replacement can also disturb neighbours below and need the building manager’s say-so. A repair is quieter and quicker.
Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Why book with us
- We leave the room as we found it
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Normally one visit, start to finish

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Signs you need wood floor repair in Vale of Health
Chair legs, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and moving appliances can gouge them.
Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:
- Gouges from moving appliances
- Burns
- Chipped board edges
- Dents from dropped items
Rented homes near Hampstead Heath station (about 0.7 miles south-east) change hands often, and repairing floors between tenants is quicker than replacing them.

Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Questions from Vale of Health
Do you work for schools and businesses in Vale of Health?
Yes. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations and work for schools, leisure centres and businesses. Tell us about access and timings for the building.
Can you fix floors in a rental near Hampstead Heath station?
Yes. We repair floors between tenancies for landlords and letting agents, and several addresses can be quoted together.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
