Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Alverthorpe. The price reflects:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- What the surface is made of
- Doing more than one item at once
- Unusual colours or finishes
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Details of any past repairs
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Repair or replace in Alverthorpe?
Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we work on in Alverthorpe
- Solid wood
