Ashton-in-Makerfield: your questions answered
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
How much does wood floor repair cost in Ashton-in-Makerfield?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your WN4 postcode.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
What happens after I send pictures?
We come back with a fixed price. There is no obligation to book.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
How we handle wood floor repair in Ashton-in-Makerfield
Laminate swollen by water cannot be repaired, and we’ll tell you if that is the case. We repair damaged boards in place, matched to the colour and grain. If you are dealing with burns and chipped board edges, we can usually put it right, on wood-effect vinyl (ask us), laminate flooring and engineered wood alike.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
How we price wood floor repair
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Ashton-in-Makerfield. The price reflects:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
- How many items we do on one visit
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed quote
You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
- One picture of the whole floor
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
How it works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Get a quote
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Ashton-in-Makerfield
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
