DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
How we price wood floor repair
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How much damage there is
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The material, if you know it
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
What we’re called out for in Backlands
Chair legs, pets and dropped items mark wood and laminate floors, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Scratches from furniture and pets
- Burns
- Gouges from moving appliances
- Chipped board edges
What your quote should include
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- How soon you can use it again
- If travel is included in the price
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
How it works
From the moment we arrive, 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 with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We start by cleaning the damage.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- We sand the repair flush with the board.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.
Before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Getting a price
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Repair or replace in Backlands?
Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, sourcing a matching board and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
