Should you replace it?

Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and relaying. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.

Why us?

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

How we price wood floor repair

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material
  • Access to the area
  • How many areas need work

Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Getting a price from pictures

Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A wider photo showing the entire floor

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Aftercare advice

Choosing a repair company

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours in most cases. We leave the room clean.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. We level the repair to the board surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
