Book wood floor repair in Barrow upon Soar

The process

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. The repair is levelled to the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Repairing versus replacing in Barrow upon Soar

Swapping a damaged board can mean lifting the floor back to it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. A repair works with the boards in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why book with us

  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • How much damage there is
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material and finish

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A picture taken from further back
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
