How we price wood floor repair
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- Access to the area
- What kind of damage it is
- The colour and finish to match
- How much damage there is
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
What you get with us
- One price list for the whole UK
- No need to remove anything
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

- First the damaged area is cleaned.
- We fill dents, chips and gouges.
