Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
What wood floor repair costs
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The colour and finish to match
- The material
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
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the whole floor
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- What it’s made of, if you know
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Aylesbeare use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Questions from Aylesbeare
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
What do you need from me?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Do I need to move furniture?
Just around the damaged area.
What happens next?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Do you come to Aylesbeare?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Aylesbeare from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We clean the damaged area.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- We level the repair to the board surface.
- We match the colour and grain by hand.
- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
