How we price wood floor repair

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The type of damage

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Send photos for a quote

You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Repairing versus replacing in Apse Heath

Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

How the visit works

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

How to get a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

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

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

FAQs for Apse Heath

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

How do I get a price for wood floor repair in Apse Heath?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your PO36 postcode.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Do you cover the whole of Isle of Wight?

All of Isle of Wight, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Do you cover Apse Heath?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Apse Heath from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
