Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why us?

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Fixed prices from your photos

Landlord and trade work in Warriston

If you manage property in Warriston, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

How we price wood floor repair

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many areas need work
  • What the surface is made of

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The material, if you know it

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

What a repair can’t fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Laminate swollen along the joints by water
  • Boards that have lifted or warped
  • Underfloor damage

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we work on in Warriston

  • Laminate flooring
  • Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
  • Solid wood
  • Engineered wood

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow a morning or an afternoon, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
