Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- The type of damage
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The colour and finish to match
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send pictures for a quote
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
What we can’t put right
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Laminate swollen along the joints by water
- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Materials we work on in Ansty

Ansty questions
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
What does wood floor repair cost?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Does the room need clearing?
Just around the damaged area.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
Do you work in Ansty?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Ansty for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Ansty
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Ansty use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Ansty. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
