What we do, step by step

- Finally we match the sheen of the floor.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage

Carleton questions
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
How do I get a price for wood floor repair in Carleton?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
What information do you need?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
How we price wood floor repair
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Carleton. The price depends on:
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed quote
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- What it’s made of, if you know
If you are in Carleton and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it leaves the floor down. Our wood floor repair starts from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
